These sources name who runs the business and when the firm invested, rather than saying in a sentence that the searchers bought it. The index host names both men as co-chief executives and dates its investment to October 2021; a second backer names each as co-chief executive with no date; a third lists the company with a link. The company's own site rendered nothing to a browser. Nothing says either man bought it.
