# Market-path research — 3 Sep 2026 04:55 Europe/London

Not a P move. No path named. No customer named.
Did not re-read Companies House company 16892858.
Did not repeat last recon hour: Notion Capital (3 Sep 03:55 Companies in the space). Do not re-use Notion Capital as primary.
Also did not repeat as primary: Refuge, Average weekly earnings, Liberis, Capital Enterprise, YouLend, Bethnal Green Ventures, Seedcamp, Angel Investment Network, Assetz Capital, ThinCats, Antler, LawCare, MarketFinance, ONS Vacancies, MSA s.54, StreetLink, Turn2us, Centrepoint, Crisis, Shelter, ONS labour-market overview, Funding Circle, iwoca, BGF, Entrepreneur First, Founders Factory, Crowdcube, Seedrs, SyndicateRoom, UK GDPR, CRA, CCR, PECR, GEM UK, LSBS, BoE CCS, BoE ASBC, ONS BICS, PAYE RTI, BBB SBFM, CH April–June 2026, Google for Startups, Santander Breakthrough, Advicelocal, Youth Access, ATJF, AdviceNow, BGV, Virgin StartUp, Eagle Labs, NatWest Accelerator. Explicitly did not re-open Notion Capital / Refuge / Average weekly earnings / Liberis / Capital Enterprise / YouLend / Bethnal Green Ventures / Seedcamp / Angel Investment Network / Assetz Capital / ThinCats / Antler / LawCare / MarketFinance / Vacancies / MSA s.54 / StreetLink / ONS labour-market overview as primary. Prefer Women's Aid this hour (named preferred unused Competitor-mapping sibling left unused at 2 Sep 13:55 LawCare and again at 3 Sep 02:55 Refuge / 03:55 Notion Capital). Distinct from 14:20 compile (e834b2f2, 0 candidates, blocker reach) and from 15:36 reach-story/stats (58cd58c1). Distinct from Refuge (3 Sep 02:55), LawCare (2 Sep 13:55), StreetLink / Turn2us / Centrepoint / Crisis / Shelter. 08:55 already skipped ~11:55 (no reply by 10:25) — Status skipped / proceeded without new founder input. 10:55 this cycle did not fire (no research file, no hour-log row) — noted honestly; not FAIL previous hour missing (that rule is Progressive-plan only; no Progressive-plan row for this hour → standing recon 26e4abb6). 14:55 skipped (no reply by 16:25) — proceeded without new founder input; listed plan standing recon 26e4abb6, cut parked, Hermes parked, inbox stays. 17:15/17:25 close already ran at 17:32 — this hour does not re-close the cycle. 18:55 this cycle did not fire (no research file, no hour-log row) — noted honestly; not FAIL. Previous hour 03:55 EXISTS (Notion Capital) — FAIL-previous-hour rule is Progressive-plan only — do NOT write FAIL. Automation for this 04:55 hour fired ~05:07 London (late by about twelve minutes). Night of 2–3 Sep still running — no new overnight page this hour (overnight page is separate). Did not unpark/install customer cut 63e813ea. Did not write kpis/p-evidence.md. Did not promote survivors / member services / local domestic-abuse services / professionals supporting survivors as an accepted market/path. Did not install the 12:48 productised hour-menu as a path. Did not invent a buyer from Women's Aid federation / survivors / professionals / member services. Did not treat Women's Aid as Refuge, LawCare, StreetLink, Turn2us, Centrepoint, Crisis, or Shelter. Did not switch primary to Haatch / Growth Capital Partners / CPAG — Women's Aid www cluster lives this hour (www.womensaid.org.uk HTTP 200). Did not invent company numbers; numbers below are printed on the Women's Aid site (or CH / Charity Commission for printed numbers only).

Area: Competitor mapping.
Verdict: stayed thin.
P unchanged.

## Searched
Prefer Competitor mapping this hour — Women's Aid / www.womensaid.org.uk (womensaid.org.uk same size). Why this source now: destination $2.5–5bn; first-customer cut parked (63e813ea); live gate still cannot compile path candidates (e834b2f2 compile 0; blocker still REACH — how a first professional hour is found and sold); last recon hour was Notion Capital Companies in the space; this hour leaves that category and files the named Women's Aid Competitor-mapping sibling left unused at 13:55 LawCare / 02:55 Refuge / 03:55 Notion Capital for how-the-public-is-directed-to-domestic-abuse help (England national federation next to Refuge) without inventing a buyer. Hold = no invention, not no recon. Not a FYJ path. Not P. This hour works REACH-channel competitor-mapping filing on the live compile-paths gate and does not invent a buyer to close it. Stay category Competitor mapping — primary Women's Aid cluster lives (www HTTP 200). Fallbacks not switched to: Haatch (haatch.com HTTP 200 size 1746724) — Companies-in-the-space unused sibling existence only; Growth Capital Partners (growthcapital.co.uk HTTP 200 size 173713) — existence note only; CPAG (cpag.org.uk) — not switched (Women's Aid primary lived; prior hour noted CPAG 403 risk).

- Printed identity: Women's Aid Federation of England; company limited by guarantee England No: 3171880 (CH 03171880); registered charity England No. 1054154; federation of nearly 180 organisations / just under 300 local services (Commission activities text).
- Competitor-mapping how-the-public-is-directed-to-domestic-abuse help lane next to Refuge, LawCare, StreetLink, Turn2us, Centrepoint, Crisis, Shelter, Youth Access, Advicelocal, ATJF, AdviceNow, RCJ Advice, JUSTICE, NPBC, FRU, Support Through Court, Advocate, AdviceUK, Law Centres, LawWorks, Citizens Advice, Legal Choices. Not a FYJ market path.
- Survivors / member services / professionals supporting survivors are help-seekers and sector counterparties — not who FYJ sells to.

## What does not stand
- No page names a FYJ customer, market, offer, or P.
- Survivors, member services, local domestic-abuse services, and professionals supporting survivors are not a FYJ buyer.
- A Women's Aid national federation host is not a FYJ market path.
- Naming "FYJ for Women's Aid members / survivors / domestic-abuse professionals" is inventing a customer — banned.
- Do not invent OSCR for this England charity. Do not invent unpadded CH 3171880 as a live page (named short 404; live is 03171880). Do not re-file Refuge / LawCare / Notion Capital as primary. Do not switch primary to Haatch / Growth Capital Partners / CPAG when Women's Aid lives. Do not open 16892858.
- Who / why / how / next all missing. No candidate this hour has even a partial who / why / how. End-to-end stays missing. Productised-menu context from 12:48 does not fill those blanks. Compile stays 0 (e834b2f2); reach blocker not closed by filing another how-the-public-is-directed-to-help host. Stayed thin as a path.

## End-to-end test
- Who it is for: missing.
- Why they would pay: missing.
- How FYJ reaches them: missing (a Women's Aid domestic-abuse national federation cluster is how the public is directed to help, not how FYJ reaches a named buyer).
- What sits next: missing.
No real public fact this hour filled any of the four. Do not invent the rest. The Women's Aid pages (+ CH 03171880 + Charity Commission 1054154) fill a Competitor mapping cell (how-the-public-is-directed-to-domestic-abuse help). They do not fill a path cell. They do not install the productised-menu bucket. They do not pad compile candidates. Compile stays 0.

## Value-forming
The Competitor mapping line got another how-the-public-is-directed-to-domestic-abuse / VAWG help filing (Women's Aid after Refuge, LawCare, StreetLink, Turn2us, Centrepoint, Crisis, Shelter). Value has not started to form as a FYJ path. A national domestic-abuse federation host is not a path. Adjacent competitor-mapping filings still leave who / why / how / next empty.

## Result
No path named yet. Competitor mapping stayed thin. P unchanged. Women's Aid primary cluster lives — no switch to Haatch / Growth Capital Partners / CPAG. CH opened only for printed padded number 03171880. Charity Commission opened for printed 1054154. Did not open 16892858.

## Unused fallbacks named for NEXT hour
1. Companies-in-the-space unused existence notes still available: Haatch / haatch.com (HTTP 200 size 1746724); Growth Capital Partners / growthcapital.co.uk (HTTP 200 size 173713). Prefer one of these as next unused Companies-in-the-space primary if still unused.
2. Competitor-mapping: Women's Aid now filed. Optional later CPAG if still unused and not 403. Do not re-use Women's Aid / Refuge / LawCare as primary next hour.
3. Prefer a fresh unused Companies in the space OR Market scenarios OR Risk reduction host NOT already banned. Do not re-use Liberis / Capital Enterprise / YouLend / Bethnal Green Ventures / Seedcamp / Angel Investment Network / Assetz Capital / ThinCats / Antler / LawCare / MarketFinance / Vacancies / Average weekly earnings / Refuge / Notion Capital / Women's Aid / MSA s.54 / StreetLink / ONS labour-market overview as primary next hour.
4. Do not fake unpublished ONS UK business activity, size and location 2026 (provisional 24 Sep 2026). Do not re-read Women's Aid or Notion Capital as primary.
5. Prefer a fresh unused perimeter next hour rather than re-filing Women's Aid Impact / Routes to Support depth as a path.
