The cleanest and most concise pitch I've read up to now! The website works and shows a lot of good work. 

However you came here for critical feedback that might be useful so:
1. in the pitch you claim your differentiator is "but none claim the same level of predictive validation. " but nowhere in the pitch do you mention how it works (i understand a lot of it is your patent pending trade secret), which is understandable, but then you should lead with some other form of proof such as backtesting results. Otherwise we just have to take this all on faith. The site itself for some reason only shows me data and predictions made until 2018 in the free trial... it would be interesting to see if these predictions became true, and what things did it miss to predict, etc. something! If you haven't done this, go back and do it! it would be a great proof of concept to investors / patrons / users. 
2. I think a better model for the free trial is to show more information, so that it's useful to investors, but put a cap on how many searches / questions can be asked per day / month. this gives quick value to potential customers, but then immediately tells them they need to pay for constant use. (this is my first idea, and it might not be right, but i think the current system of only showing you data until 2018 is not satisfying / useful to most people)
3. I love the intended aim of this: to help identify the frontier of innovation and where to invest in it to accelerate it! So i hope your mission succeeds, the EV is astronomical if you crack this! So another suggestion I have to make this succeed is to consider changing the interface. I think that a 2d high dimensional visual compression looks "nice" but isn't useful for most power users (Which is what paying investors would want), you need to turn this into a bloomberg terminal for research and predictions. I want more data driven information density , graphs, or other ways of showing the information faster and more usefully. 

Love the mission!
