These sources name who runs the business and when the firm invested, rather than saying in a sentence that the searchers bought it. One backer's reference tile names him chief executive beside the company's former name; the index host dates its own November 2025 investment and names nobody; three more backers list the company under its new name. Nothing says he bought it.
