    Why it is in this group

    • The name "request_startup_memo" says "request": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Start a new asynchronous startup analysis and email the public memo link. Consumes the user's applicable free allowance. Requires their authorization and a stable fingerprint. Not idempotent: do not repeat while waiting. Additional reports require purchase on the website.
