The description the founder gave in the NYTimes piece is clearly incorrect.
I wouldn’t necessarily say that. I think Goldberg was implicitly comparing ImpactMatters to “other ratings” from orgs like Charity Navigator, Charity Watch, Consumer Reports, etc. -- all of which I’d guess are better-known than GiveWell (and also seem much more similar in the types of charities they report on).
Or did you mean some other part of the article?
Edit: Looks like Elijah Goldberg responded! Never mind me, then.
