FullContact is a verified market leader in identity resolution, recently acquired by Ziff Davis (Q4 2024), with estimated annual revenue of ~$18M+ and significant B2B traction. While the submission itself was minimal and low-effort (likely an internal test or automated entry), the underlying entity demonstrates exceptional real-world utility, massive audience reach, and proven market dominance. The score reflects the high value of the verified business, adjusted downward slightly for the lack of specific technical details in the submission form.
