A company counts when a public page shows it: a vendor's customer page, a case study, a press release or a job post, most saved with a dated capture. Every line is a customer, at one of four proof levels: confirmed, declared by the company itself, observed or signal (a job post, the weakest). A company counts as using both tools when it has a line on each, at any level; the list shows the strongest proofs first and marks job posts.
