Shocking that you are able to even get investors with such a crude view on how business works. Starting an ancillary business related to one product that is not even your own IP or core competency is just lightweight consultancy, not a start up.

I would have thought the goal of sharecropping on OpenAI's land was to build a product that OpenAI would eventually acquire.
The product is entirely just OpenAI. IMO they would only be in the acquisition part to acquire the customer base, nothing about the product. But then they couldn't have another company paying to do the same thing. Why acquire one portfolio when you have _n_ companies paying them to offer same thing to others.
