You're In Business

Vend Tech Group is a verifiable but small UK-based recruitment agency incorporated in 2022. The project submission, however, contains significant discrepancies and hallucinations: it lists the name as 'FrostHeart' (a fierce contradiction), claims a 'marketcap of 75,000,000' (impossible for a micro-entity), and asserts 'most people have used my product' (demonstrably false). There is no evidence of proprietary technology or technical innovation; it is a standard service business. The score reflects the existence of the agency but heavily penalizes the lack of software utility and the extremely poor quality and veracity of the submission data.
