    Founding Story

    After experiences with both successful exits and a startup that scaled to Series B but ultimately failed, Darius Monsef realized that founders often get lost in vanity metrics and lack a truth-seeking accountability system. He built Pre to provide a data-driven operating system that forces honest execution and real-time progress sharing.
