# Market-path research — 4 Sep 2026 22:55 Europe/London

Not a P move. No path named. No customer named.
Did not re-read Companies House company 16892858.

Do not re-use those hosts as primary.
Did not re-file as primary: Passion Capital, Connect Ventures, Hoxton, MMC, LocalGlobe, Balderton, Octopus, Episode 1, Haatch, Growth Capital Partners, Notion Capital, YouLend, Liberis, Assetz, ThinCats, Funding Circle, iwoca, MarketFinance, BGF, Seedcamp, Antler, AIN, SyndicateRoom, Crowdcube, Seedrs, UKBAA, BVCA, Innovate Finance, techUK, CBI, CFE, TEN, Founders Forum, IPSE, Enterprise Nation, Be the Business, ScaleUp Institute, FSB, IoD, CIPD, CIPP, Business Gateway, Wayra, Techstars, Digital Catapult, Tech Nation, Surviving Economic Abuse, StepChange, Rape Crisis, SafeLives, Women's Aid, Refuge.
Previous filed hour 21:55 EXISTS (market-path-research-2026-09-04-2155.md Molten Ventures Companies in the space) — not FAIL. Previous 20:55 / 19:55 / 18:55 / 17:55 / 16:55 / 13:55 / 12:55 / 11:55 EXIST — not FAIL. No 15:55 fire — already noted at 16:55; not FAIL (Progressive-plan only). 14:55 skipped (no reply by 16:25) — not re-asked. 08:55 already skipped — not re-asked. 17:15 close already ran — not re-closed this hour.
Did not unpark/install customer cut 63e813ea. Did not write kpis/p-evidence.md. Did not invent a buyer from helpline callers / survivors / professionals / corporate partners. Did not install the 12:48 productised hour-menu as a path. Did invent no UK Companies House company number — footer printed Company limited by Guarantee (2969307); CH opened once for that printed number only (02969307). Did invent no charity number — footer printed Registered Charity 1077384; Charity Commission opened once for that printed number only. Did not open 16892858. Did not invent numbers beyond printed site / CH / Commission claims. Did not print G0–G3 or a numbered gate catalogue. Did not emit a file:// link.

No Progressive-plan row for this hour → standing recon 26e4abb6. Automation / executor hour label 22:55 (automation fired ~23:15 London). Not a decision point (08:55/14:55 only; both windows already closed).

Area: Competitor mapping.
Verdict: stayed thin as a path (competitor-mapping reach channel; how-the-public-is-directed-to-LGBT+-domestic-abuse / hate-crime / conversion-therapy / sexual-violence help). Not a path. Who/why/how/next missing. P unchanged.
Primary host: Galop — preferred lived on www.galop.org.uk (galop.org.uk → www). No fallback switch to Respect (respect.uk.net) because preferred lived.

## Why this hour
Destination is the $2.5–5bn company; the first-customer cut (63e813ea) remains parked; the live middle gate is that path candidates still cannot be compiled (e834b2f2: 0 candidates, reach blocker). After 21:55 Companies in the space (Molten Ventures) and 18:55 Competitor mapping (Surviving Economic Abuse), this hour rotates into **Competitor mapping** again — away from Companies in the space. Preferred primary is Galop (galop.org.uk), LGBT+ domestic abuse / hate crime / conversion therapy / sexual violence help routing, left unused next to Surviving Economic Abuse 18:55 / Rape Crisis 03:55 / StepChange 11:55 / SafeLives / Women's Aid / Refuge. Hold = no invention, not no recon. This moment tests another how-the-public-is-directed-to-help channel. An LGBT+ anti-abuse charity is not a FYJ path. Not P.

## Searched
Primary: Galop (www.galop.org.uk / galop.org.uk → www). Preferred host is readable this hour — no fallback switch. Did not re-file Surviving Economic Abuse / Rape Crisis / StepChange / SafeLives / Women's Aid / Refuge / Molten / Business Gateway / BPMR / ONS / Passion Capital as primary. Unused because preferred lived: Respect (respect.uk.net).

## What does not stand
- No page names a FYJ customer, market, offer, or P.
- Helpline callers / survivors / professionals / corporate partners are not who FYJ sells to.
- An LGBT+ anti-abuse help-routing charity is not a FYJ market path.
- Naming "FYJ for Galop clients / LGBT+ survivors via helpline" is inventing a customer — banned.
- Do not re-file Surviving Economic Abuse / Rape Crisis / StepChange / SafeLives / Women's Aid / Refuge / Molten / Business Gateway as primary. Do not open 16892858.
- Do not treat Respect as filed this hour — unused because preferred lived.

## End-to-end test
- Who it is for: missing.
- Why they would pay: missing.
- How FYJ reaches them: missing.
- What sits next: missing.
No real public fact this hour filled any of the four. Do not invent the rest. Galop fills a Competitor mapping cell as how-the-public-is-directed-to-LGBT+-anti-abuse help next to Surviving Economic Abuse / Rape Crisis / SafeLives / Women's Aid / Refuge / StepChange. It does not fill a path cell.

## Value-forming
Competitor mapping now has a filed Galop LGBT+ anti-abuse national charity next to Surviving Economic Abuse (4 Sep 18:55), StepChange (11:55), Rape Crisis (03:55), SafeLives (3 Sep 12:55), Women's Aid (3 Sep 04:55), Refuge (3 Sep 02:55). Value has not started to form as a FYJ path. A help-routing charity is not who / why / how / next. Verdict: stayed thin as a path (reach channel only).

## Result
No path named yet. Competitor mapping stayed thin as a path. P unchanged.
Compile stays 0. Blocker still reach. Cut 63e813ea parked. Hermes parked. Slot unchanged. Layer unchanged (Peer toggle: Founder View ↔ Agent View).
Confirmation: Contract UUID 26e4abb6-3b66-4a66-a4f7-d4c065ad9233 is live. Hold = no invention, not no recon. Preferred Galop lived.
