Saratoga Springs, NY · 23 years of early signal detection & arbitrage · 10+ documented ventures
Howard Orloff is an independent digital entrepreneur and the creator of the Signal Arbitrage framework — a methodology for identifying emerging market opportunities in the gap between when demand begins forming and when the information ecosystem catches up. He has applied this framework across 23 years and 10+ documented ventures, from e-commerce to crowdfunding infrastructure to AI safety.
He was the top affiliate producer for GoFundMe in its early years. He built Crowdfunding-Website-Reviews.com into an industry-leading resource that helped shape the crowdfunding movement. He served as VP & CMO of Zacks Crowd, building one of the first registered national equity crowdfunding portals in the US. He co-founded VestLo — the first registered equity crowdfunding portal in Illinois history. He was a top 5 global Sweatcoin affiliate for 7+ years, before move-to-earn had a name.
His current flagship properties are ShieldWord.com (free AI scam protection) and InteractSafe.com (pharmacist-credentialed drug interaction checker), both built using his signal arbitrage methodology.
A methodology developed by Howard Orloff for identifying information gaps between emerging consumer demand and existing supply — then building the infrastructure to fill those gaps during the 12–24 month window before the mainstream market responds.
