Category Standard

Boom Entertainment is a verified Series A technology company (raised ~$51M) powering gaming products for major enterprise partners like NBC Sports, Barstool Sports, and Rush Street Interactive. While the submission itself was low-effort (generic claims), external verification confirms significant scale, with a team of 65+ and millions of end-users through B2B partnerships. The project scores highly on traction, utility, and market timing, far exceeding the baseline, though the poor response quality impacts the final confidence slightly.
