Industry Mainstay

Verified high-potential startup with $20M seed funding (Oct 2025) and strong founder pedigree (ex-Omnipresent). Product uses novel voice-based AI agents ('Jack' and 'Jill') for recruitment. While the submission contained hyperbolic and false claims ('most people have used my product'), external verification confirms significant early traction (~49k interactions) and market validation. The score reflects the project's high intrinsic value and capital backing, dampened by the poor quality of the specific submission data.
