Executive Summary

Founders and enterprise procurement teams struggle to find trustworthy, enterprise-grade mobile app partners because portfolios and resumes don’t prove security, compliance, maintainability, or predictable outcomes, which leads to project risk and wasted budgets. This problem is acute for the ~75,000 enterprises that typically buy $400K mobile projects and need verifiable signals before committing. You could build a B2B marketplace that combines automated AI-driven vetting (code snapshots, static analysis, security/compliance proofs), human-reviewed accreditation, and outcome-linked matching so buyers get compact, verifiable vendor signals instead of CVs. Automating code review and resume-to-outcome matching keeps operational costs manageable while providing the rigorous proofs enterprises demand. The addressable market is roughly $30B (75,000 enterprises × $400K/project), and current trends—procurement shifting to proof-based evaluation, rising mobile outsourcing, and AI-enabled vetting—make this an attractive moment to launch. With a Market Score of 86 and Revenue Potential of 84, the upside is substantial if you can capture procurement workflows. You can differentiate by making verified compliance/security badges and reproducible code-review artifacts the primary trust signals rather than portfolios, creating a practical moat for enterprise buyers. Expect challenges in onboarding high-quality vendors, building legal/insurance frameworks, and executing long enterprise sales cycles, but the combination of automated verification and compliance-first positioning makes this idea worth exploring.
