EMPEQ

EMPEQ (Empower Equity) is a legitimate, venture-backed B2B company established in 2016 with verified traction (~$2M est. revenue, 21 employees) and a high-utility product (Fast Site Survey) that uses AI/CV to streamline HVAC audits. However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing demonstrably false claims (e.g., audience 'everyone', traction 'most people') and nonsensical data ('marketcap: null'). While the underlying business is strong and comparable to the 'Established' calibration tier, the score is heavily penalized by the 'Quality Factor' due to the lack of credible evidence provided in the entry.
