How it scored
Every dimension is scored against this discipline’s published rubric. Open one to see the claim it was scored on, what the rubric measures there and how much it weighs, and where the evidence came from.
How we scored this
We read the agency’s public record first-hand — its site, pricing, case studies and independent reviews — and score what is checkable: what is published, not how it is phrased. There is no keyword counting or sentiment scoring. The label is a judgment on those facts, which is why each dimension shows the fact that decided it, the band it was judged against, and the sources — so you can check the call, and tell us if you think it is wrong. The full method, and who pays, is on how we vet.

Verdict
Trivium is the strongest Amazon-native operator in this pool for brands needing hands-on advertising plus listing, launch, and account-health execution. Recent verified reviews describe daily optimization, transparent reporting, budget adherence, and more than 20% month-over-month sales increases after launch.
Its focus is Amazon rather than a broad retail-media network, and its own case claims should be checked against contribution margin. Require seller-account ownership, inventory-aware targets, and profit or TACoS guardrails.
What you can do next
Koolav can make the introduction and handle the back-and-forth, or you can go straight to the agency.
