Oria is a brand-new product with no track record, and the credibility Petru brings to it comes from years of deep SEO work on one of the web's most demanding domains. That specialist depth does not directly build the product, but it earns a fresh launch a hearing it would not otherwise get, because people read demonstrated mastery in one hard area as a signal of seriousness in another. If you have gone genuinely deep on a specialty, that expertise is launch capital you can carry into a new venture, so name it openly rather than presenting yourself as a first-time founder starting from nothing. Depth is transferable as trust even when the underlying skills do not directly transfer.
