Category Standard

Project verified as Flatiron Health, a major oncology technology platform acquired by Roche for $1.9B. While the underlying entity has immense real-world utility, massive traction, and industry dominance (justifying high scores), the specific submission contained low-quality, hyperbolic responses (e.g., audience reach 'everyone', traction 'most people'). The score reflects the proven high value of the asset, significantly penalized by the poor quality of the submission evidence.
