Effectiv is a highly successful real-time fraud and risk management platform verified to have been acquired by Socure for $136M in October 2024. While the project demonstrates exceptional real-world utility and traction (verified exit), the submission itself was of very low quality, containing lazy text inputs (e.g., audience: 'everyone') and lacking technical detail. The high score reflects the objective reality of the project's success and valuation, heavily weighted against the poor response quality.
