 - Fetches the product URL via Firecrawl (handles JS-rendered SPAs) or Tavily extract as fallback
 - Detects funding stage from CTA signals on the page (waitlist, free trial, pricing, sales CTAs)
-- Uses Gemini to map a 3-level industry taxonomy (L1 > L2 > L3) and identify 5 comparable funded companies
+- Maps a 3-level industry taxonomy (L1 > L2 > L3) from the product page
+- **Curated pre-match (Step 5b):** Scores product against a verified dataset of 25 VC funds (sourced from fund websites) -- instant zero-hallucination matches with no Tavily credits consumed
+- **Discovers comparable companies:** Curated portfolio companies from matched funds + Tavily live search for L3-niche specifics
 - Track A: 5 Tavily searches to find who invested in each comparable company
 - Track B: 3 Tavily searches to find VCs who publish investment theses about this specific niche
-- Gemini synthesizes and ranks all found VCs by stage fit and space fit (1-10 scores)
+- Synthesizes and ranks all found VCs -- curated matches labeled "verified", Tavily matches labeled by track
 - Produces top 5 deep-dives with fund overview, portfolio evidence, how-to-approach, and outreach hook
 - Generates 3 product-specific outreach hooks (not generic advice)
 - Saves output to `docs/vc-intel/[product]-[date].md`
 
+**Zero-hallucination guarantee:** Every VC name, fund detail, check size, portfolio company, and thesis source in the output must trace to either (a) the curated `data/vc_funds.json` dataset (sourced from fund websites) or (b) a specific Tavily search result. The AI does not draw from training knowledge for any factual claim.
