Industry Mainstay

Ijeni is a verifiable, leading services marketplace in Tunisia with significant local traction (over 100,000 clients and 16,000 providers verified via external sources). While the submission itself was of poor quality—containing vague, hyperbolic claims like 'most people have used my product' and lacking technical detail—independent analysis confirms the project is a legitimate, funded startup (Flat6Labs investor) solving a genuine market fragmentation problem in the North African region. The discrepancy between the high quality of the actual business and the low effort of the submission is noted in the metrics.
