Can confirm, when I worked in VC we used this to verify order volume for a number of startups we were evaluating. For one startup, I wrote a bot to place a small order a few times a day, and log the order number.


Did you use this for due diligence to verify that the data reported by the entrepreneur in the pitch was good or you were looking at some companies in a specific space and checking the company that has more orders?


The former.
