Evidence posture
thin: No independent source documents this vendor's work; treat it as a candidate only.
Capped by
Rated from the evidence on file (sources, independence, confirmed quotes), not by an editor.
Best position confidence
Moderate confidence

It starts from the data completeness and source reliability of the profile, and is capped when independent proof of work is thin. The next level is Moderate confidence. One independent claim with a measured result for the best-ranked need is the fastest way up.

These two scores describe the profile itself and never change a position.

Limits and how to correct them
  • No independent source names local SEO work; the evidence is first-party or editorial.
  • Never verified against official sources.
  • Profile below decision-ready status: the profile is collected but not reviewed yet.
  • Use as a caveated candidate only: no independent source documents this vendor's work.
  • None of the 23 documented work claims comes from an independent source; all are the agency's own account or sources it controls.
  • Only one third-party evidence claim is normalized.
  • Best position rests on: Published by the agency on its own site.
  • 23 of 24 claims on file are the agency's own words or sources it controls; 1 come from an independent source.
  • Open: Three strongest proofs name a client and a measured, dated result (2 of 3)
  • Open: Every claim has an observation date (23 of 24)
  • Open: At least a third of documented work comes from independent sources (0 of 23 work claims)
  • Open: Founding year, team size and headquarters on file (founding year missing, team size missing)
