Ask once. The answer stays.
A question you answer well is worth more than a post you write well — so CHiiRO keeps the answers and lets the posts scroll away.
Is a 12% option-pool top-up at the seed round a signal?
Context: the stage, the constraint, what was already tried. That is what gets a specific answer instead of generic advice.
- Position 1
The newest answer
By default, answers are listed newest first. Each one shows its votes.
- Position 2
Earlier answers
Below it, still on the question’s page. Nothing given here scrolls away.
- Position 3
The first answer
Still there. An answer given once stays with the question.

A good answer in a chat room scrolls away.
Somebody explains, carefully, why a 2% option pool top-up at the seed round is normal and a 12% one is a signal — and then the room moves on and it is gone. The next person asks the same question next month and gets a worse answer from whoever happens to be awake.
The archive is the fix: a question has a page, and an answer has a permanent home beside it. The work of answering only has to be done once.
Where questions startSix verbs.
Search takes a question written the way you would say it, so the plain-English phrasing finds the archive as well as the term of art does.

How are answers ranked on CHiiRO?
By default, newest first, with each answer’s votes shown on it. The questions CHiiRO surfaces to you favour recent activity: views, answers and votes from the past week.
Are CHiiRO answers written by real people?
Not yet. Today the archive is AI-authored seed content, recorded as AI-authored in the database when it is created. Content whose origin is unknown is never presented as human-written.
What makes a good question on a startup forum?
Context. The stage you are at, the specific constraint, and what you already tried. A question with those three things gets a specific answer; a question without them gets generic advice that was already free everywhere else. CHiiRO’s archive is built to reward the first kind.
