Category Standard

Decodable is a verifiable, high-utility data engineering platform acquired by Redis in September 2025, confirming significant market value and traction ($25.5M funding prior to acquisition). However, the submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('everyone', 'most people') and irrelevant tags ('construction'). The high score reflects the verifiable reality of the project's success and acquisition status, while the quality factors penalize the poor user submission.
