Flowers and his team believe today's search technology user is being sold on the idea of "more is better" instead of "correct is better."

Technology such as Google, Yahoo or even Ask Jeeves overwhelms the user with information, Flowers said, much of which is inaccurate and/or irrelevant. He equates this situation to asking for a needle and getting back multiple haystacks.

From the company's about us (http://www.kozoru.com/about.html) page:

Our mission is to solve the issues of our customers, not just technology problems. We are dedicated to working with customers, getting their feedback and finding real solutions faced by real people.

Simply put, we are a different kind of company focused on different goals.

I'm sorry, but I really don't understand the value proposition of this company. It almost sounds like these guys are the "3 wise men".

Can you please expand more on what they do? Thanks!

I agree Nacho, seems like they got thier first round of "angel funding" but i'm not seeing the value proposition from it either.

Can anyone give more input ?

Cheers
