description: 'Lighthouse is an UNRESOLVED venture-portfolio lead in the API Evangelist network: the slug conflates at least
  two different companies named "Lighthouse" surfaced by two different VC portfolio harvests, and neither resolves to a live
  company with a developer surface. Accel lists Lighthouse as a seed-stage "metaverse search engine" at www.lighthouselabs.xyz
  — that domain now serves a GoDaddy/Afternic domain-for-sale parking lander (registered 2026-04-06, nameservers ns5/ns6.afternic.com),
  so the company appears defunct or renamed. DCM Ventures lists Lighthouse as an "AI meeting notes and productivity app" at
  lighthouse.app — that domain resolves 200 but serves an unrelated Texas apartment-rental cash-back platform transitioning
  to the UMoveFree brand, with no developer portal, no API, and no docs. The established hospitality/travel-intelligence company
  also named Lighthouse (formerly OTA Insight) is already profiled separately in the network as the lighthouse-travel provider
  and is NOT this record. Enrichment is blocked pending a human decision on which entity, if any, this slug should represent.'

    probe:
      status: 200
      verdict: parked
      evidence: Serves a domain-for-sale parking lander that redirects to forsale.godaddy.com; whois shows creation date 2026-04-06,
        registrar GMO Internet (Onamae.com), nameservers ns5.afternic.com / ns6.afternic.com.

  - name: Lighthouse (DCM Ventures portfolio)
    described-as: AI meeting notes and productivity app
    sector: frontier-tech
    url: https://lighthouse.app/
    probe:
      status: 200
      verdict: identity-mismatch
      evidence: Live site is an apartment-rental cash-back platform for ~9,000 Texas properties, noted as transitioning to
        the UMoveFree brand. Does not match the DCM portfolio description. Probed /.well-known/security.txt 404, /llms.txt
        404, /docs 404, /api 404, /developers 404, /openapi.json 404, /sitemap.xml 200 — no developer or API surface of any
        kind.
      probed: '2026-07-19'
  not-this-record:
  - slug: lighthouse-travel
    name: Lighthouse (formerly OTA Insight)
    note: Travel/hospitality commercial platform with a real Integration API; already profiled separately in the network.
  next-step: Human triage — split this slug into per-VC leads with correct URLs, retire it as a dead lead, or merge into an
    existing provider. Do not re-run enrichment until an entity is confirmed.
