The duo moved on the idea that user-generated product reviews, particularly reviews from verified buyers of a given product, could play a critical role in the online shopping research experience. The company recently completed a second round of venture funding in September 2007.<ref>http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/09/10/more-money-for-product-reviews-powerreviews-lands-15-million/</ref>
