The backstory
MeetEdgar pioneered evergreen content recycling: it stores posts in a categorized library and automatically reshares them so your queue never runs dry. That was clever a decade ago, but now AI fills a library with endless generated variations for free, and cheaper schedulers handle the queueing. It's WOUNDED because the recycling concept still works, but neither half of it, the content nor the automation, is scarce enough to command its price anymore.
