Vectara

Vectara is a high-potential 'RAG-as-a-Service' platform backed by significant Series A funding (~$29M) and an experienced ex-Google team. While the underlying technology and market timing are exceptional, the submission itself was of very low quality, containing vague and exaggerated claims ('most people have used my product'). Consequently, the score reflects the strong external reality of the business (high utility, innovation, and verifiable funding) heavily penalized by the lack of direct evidence and professionalism in the input data.
