Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Studiotypes appears to be a legitimate, boutique recruitment consultancy for the games industry established in 2016, with verifiable external client testimonials (e.g., Compulsion Games) and industry recognition (Flexa Certified). However, the project submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product'), nonsensical data ('marketcap: null'), and a lack of technical details. As a service-based non-tech business submitted with poor data integrity, it scores low on this technology-focused evaluation framework despite being a functional small business.

Description
We're a good bunch that like to do Recruitment well. We try to avoid the many clichés associated with agency recruitment and simply seek fair and creative solutions to tricky hiring problems. We do this because we love and care about the games our clients are creating, and have quite possibly poured hours of our own time into them as players at some point. Above all, we genuinely enjoy talking to the people we get the privilege of doing so on a daily basis. \n\nWe help. We recruit. We are, Studiotypes!
