Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Vendora Search appears to be a recruitment agency launched in 2024, not a technology product. The submission contains critical red flags, including verifiable false claims ('most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone') and a website that, based on search index data, contains placeholder testimonials (e.g., 'Patrick Bateman', 'Jane Doe'). While the founders appear to be real recruiters, the digital presence is unprofessional and the submission quality is extremely low. There is no custom technology or software innovation evident.
