Scoring rationale
PASS — Barrière is a transdermal vitamin patch brand (personal care/supplements), which falls outside Jeff's food & beverage mandate. Despite compelling traction signals (Amazon BSR improved 53% median across 4 SKUs, best-seller lactase patch at BSR 3,743, Google Trends rising with 90-day avg of 87, and a CNBC-reported 1,700-door Walmart launch projecting $10M 2026 revenue at a $19M valuation), the category fit disqualifies it. Worth flagging to CPG-adjacent co-investors focused on wellness/supplements.
Traction: 0 press · 30 ads · BSR Δ53% · TikTok 1 → 9/25
Authenticity: IG 14 · TT 1 · -4 Amazon reviews · 10 subreddits → 6/20
Capital: 0 funding press (penalty 3) · TM sweet-spot no · 30 ads → 8/15 (higher = pre-raise)
Category timing: personal_care (transdermal vitamin patches) trend flat · brand trend rising → 7/12
Out of food+bev scope — will not surface on pipeline.
