Correction: Fetchr's end is sourced to the insolvency and liquidation warning, not an unreported shutdown

The card's last move says "Ceased operations after insolvency". The insolvency is well documented: Wamda (October 7, 2021) reports BECO Capital's letter calling the company insolvent with liquidation on the table after a disputed $100 million Saudi tax assessment. But no dated news source reports the actual cessation of operations - every reliable outlet stops at the warning. The move line moves back to what the record can prove. Surfaced by the 2026-08-08 consensus backfill, where all three seats abstained on the cessation claim.

Correction: ekar launched in Abu Dhabi in 2016; Dubai came in January 2017

The card says founded "2016 · Dubai" and the first move line says "Co-founded ekar in Dubai". The National's 2019 profile is specific: ekar launched in 2016 in Abu Dhabi under an agreement with Etihad Airways, and entered Dubai in January 2017 in partnership with the RTA. The 2016 year stands; the city does not. Surfaced by the 2026-08-08 consensus backfill, where every seat abstained on the founding claim for lack of evidence.

Correction: baraka's total venture funding is $25M, not $24M

The card states "$24M total", the arithmetic of the two named rounds ($4M seed + $20M Series A). Both pinned sources state $25M total: TechCrunch reports "Baraka has raised $25 million in total venture capital funding" and Gulf Business reports "With $25m raised so far". The named rounds are correct; the stated total undercounts by $1M of additional venture funding beyond the two named rounds. The seed year is dropped from the raised line: pinned sources confirm the $4M amount but conflict on 2020 vs 2021 for the round, and the moves line already carries the sourced launch-year framing. Surfaced by the 2026-08-08 consensus backfill (FAIL, 2/3 cited-contradiction on the total).
