TapTalent.ai is a legitimate, venture-backed (Iterative Capital Winter 2024, Salesforce Startup Programme) AI recruitment platform based in Singapore/India. While the submission contained significant errors (claiming a 2013 launch vs. actual 2022/2023 founding, and hyperbolic claims of 'everyone' using it), external verification confirms it is a functioning B2B SaaS product with growing traction (~100 corporate clients). The project has high real-world utility in the competitive HR-tech market, though the low quality of the submission data negatively impacted the score.
