Industry Mainstay

The project 'Bokio' is a highly successful Swedish fintech company offering automated accounting software, acquired by Visma in 2022 (estimated ~$100M value). While the actual real-world utility and traction are exceptional (70k+ users, significant SME market share), the submission itself was of extremely low quality—using an incorrect name ('SwiftStorm'), false/exaggerated claims ('everyone', 'most people'), and providing no verifiable data. The score reflects the high intrinsic value of the verified entity, heavily penalized by the lack of credible evidence provided in the submission.
