The large number at the top is the score of the vendor's best position in a ranking: the number that orders it on that list. These two scores describe the profile itself and never change a position. Rules: how Vendar ranks.

Not collected yet

The collector adds these as its passes come online. Until then they are gaps, not zeros.

  • Cross-source consistency

    Team size, founding year, address and prices compared across the site, LinkedIn, directories and registries. Arrives with the collector's evidence pass.

  • Change history

    What changed on the profile and how the score moved per question, with the model version. Arrives with the monthly fast pass.

  • Case quality grades

    Client specificity, baseline and result, scale, causality and verifiability graded 0 to 3 with quotes. Arrives with ranking model 2026.11 after calibration.

  • Measurements and buyer reports

    Speed and uptime of delivered sites, visibility of named clients, response time to a quote request, and what buyers report 30 and 90 days after a shortlist.

Corrections and right of reply

HQDM can dispute any claim on this page or add evidence. Submitted evidence is recorded as claimed until Vendar checks it, and the dispute and its resolution stay on the profile. Buyers who spot an error can report it the same way.
