Certified Problem Solver

Articheck is a verified, established B2B SaaS platform (founded ~2013) that serves as a standard for digital condition reporting in the art world, with estimated annual revenue (~$2.8M) comparable to the calibration baseline. However, the submission quality is extremely poor, containing false claims ('most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone') and lazy data entry. The score reflects the strong underlying business reality, heavily penalized by the low quality and reliability of the submission evidence.
