Love the idea, my only concern is how to trust that at some point you're not going to include sponsored products?

As a user of our product, I'd really hate it if we were recommending crappy products. I suspect users will also feel the same and this thought will hold us accountable.

That's a non-answer to the question. You're saying that you would like to recommend good products only, but the question was about sponsored products.

And on another comment about adding high margin results as "best" you seem very interested in that concept.

I'm not trying to be hateful, but if you're thinking about how to seed results with high margin products for yourself, instead of the actual best results already in the life cycle of your product, I think it's just a matter of (not much) time before any quality you have will immediately plummet. This makes me very cautious about your product. Very.
