Jake Butler builds software where getting the details wrong has real consequences.

He is the founder of Corvo Labs and the builder behind the lower dB (thelowerdb.com), an independent editorial intelligence desk for people navigating GLP-1 medications — no affiliate rankings, no sponsored content, no clinic partnerships. the lower dB runs on an 11-stage AI editorial pipeline with human review at every publish decision.

He also built FreshProof, a claim verification and freshness-monitoring system that extracts factual claims from published content, verifies them against tiered sources, and tracks when they’re likely to go stale. FreshProof powers post-publish verification for the lower dB and is designed as a standalone API for content teams in healthcare, legal, finance, and general domains.
