Industry Mainstay

EqualWeb is a verified, significant player in the digital accessibility space with a team size (~30-125) and market presence exceeding the submission's poor data quality. While the input relied on copy-paste marketing and vague claims ('most people'), external validation confirms thousands of installations and legitimate revenue (~$2.5M). The project scores highly on utility and market timing due to ADA compliance trends, but receives penalties for the low-effort submission and lack of specific, verifiable evidence provided by the user.
