Can Kruncher Display Wrong Data?

Our systems have layers of checks to ensure accuracy, but the 1 in 10,000 edge cases can always happen and fall through the cracks. 

There are several reasons for data misrepresentation in Kruncher: 

1. Data is not attributed correctly.

Example: Cursor founders' (Michael Truell, Sualeh Asif, Arvid Lunnemark, and Aman Sanger) LinkedIn profiles all display that they're part of Anysphere (which is the company behind Cursor). Kruncher attributes them to be founders of Anysphere instead of Cursor, therefore listing all of them as non-founders of Cursor. 

What about other sources claiming Michael Truell and others as Cursor founders? See "Conflicting Data" below. 

2. Data attribution is unclear.

Example: You made an analysis for XYZ Company. There are 30 companies worldwide with the exact same name. Kruncher cannot be certain which news of XYZ Company is yours. 

This can be prevented if you provide Kruncher with the company’s website address and the full name(s) of the current founder(s), so Kruncher has a very clear idea of the exact company you’ve inputted. 

3. Different sources mention different data (Conflicting Data).

This is an old problem with data anywhere: Conflicts. This is especially difficult to parse through if the sources do not display a date published, so Kruncher does not know if the data is just outdated, or an outright conflict. 

As a short-term fix, you can always edit the data displayed inside Company Reports or upload your own notes as a source that Kruncher can reference in the face of ambiguity. 

At Kruncher, we strive to be accurate and transparent and is actively working to make Kruncher better and more intuitive every day.
