Category Standard

The project 'DailyPay' is a verifiable, market-leading fintech unicorn in the Earned Wage Access (EWA) sector, providing high real-world utility to millions of employees. Despite the submission being submitted under the alias 'DeepFang' with hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and low-effort descriptions, the underlying business is established, generating substantial revenue and impact. The score reflects the project's massive scale and utility, heavily discounted by the low quality of the specific submission data and lack of technical detail provided by the applicant.
