Certified Problem Solver

BrightStarr (rebranded to Unily in 2018) is a verified and successful digital workplace consultancy/SaaS provider with significant market presence, evidenced by a $68M investment in 2019 and acquisition in 2021. However, the project submission contains substantial inaccuracies (claiming 6,000 employees, likely confusing it with BrightStar Care or Brightstar Corp) and low-quality assertions ('most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone'). The score reflects the high real-world value of the underlying business heavily penalized by the poor quality and dated nature of the submission data.
