Veritone Inc (VERI)

[GBR]

Also can't figure out why the name Pandologic is on a long list of Amazon delivery job openings. Those weren't there before.

This is pure speculation and probably not true, but will throw it out there.

Veritone's SEC filing about Amazon notifying Veritone of the reduced spend happened right before the Broadbean purchase. I still say, now more than ever, that the Broadbean acquisition was irresponsible, knowing full well that they would have to seek funding. The only way I can justify the Broadbean purchase is if a strategic partner behind it.

Maybe now Veritone and Amazon are going to be partners in HR solutions. That would explain why Amazon not paying for HR services. If you notice, at the bottom of Veritone.com, Recruiting not listed as an industry. But at the bottom of aiWare.com, recruiting IS listed as an industry. Even if the reason is that Veritone wants to keep HR services as a separate entity, how hard would it be to get a Veritone Hire website up and running. They have a ton of useless websites like Veriverse, Veritone Voice, etc.

I don't know. After todays, shit show, it looks like the Broadbean purchase was completely idiotic. Tired of giving them the benefit of the doubt, only to be burned.

But sure looks to me like Amazon using Pando services.
