"Aim to provide" is pretty loose. There really should be a guarantee of some sort in there. Not to be funded, of course, but something.

It's not so much a guarantee we (the potential users) want, as something showing that the company could credibly provide that access.
That makes sense; and we will have more information on this front.

As a side note, aside from the above sources of value mentioned (essentially access), one thing that we're looking to provide is some structure and community to those who are also looking to start a company. We recognize that this is not something necessarily every founder needs

it's something I need very much. but part of needing it is that I'm not... particularly qualified to evaluate your ability to give it to me, which makes things difficult.

Really, that's the hard part about hiring help in general; the areas where you need the most help, you generally don't have the skill required to recognize skill, so you are reliant entirely on credentials, and even picking which credentials to select for is difficult when you don't know the field.
