Quality control

What we remove matters as much as what we send.

The August comparison also surfaced established cafés, known coffee incumbents and duplicate licence activity. Sending those as “new leads” would waste a roaster’s time.

Neon Tiger CafeExcludedEstablished venue; public history reaches back to 2016.
Chosen BeanExcludedEstablished roaster; not a coffee-supply opportunity.
Minori CafeExcludedPublicly identifies an existing coffee partner.
Paddington CafeDeduplicatedTwo licences at adjacent addresses; one opportunity until verified.
“New licence” is a signal. “Opening soon” is a claim that needs proof.

That distinction is the product.
