Category Standard

Funnel.io is a highly successful, verified B2B SaaS company (estimated $76M+ ARR, 300+ employees, Pre-IPO stage) solving a critical data fragmentation problem for marketers. However, the submission quality was extremely poor, containing hyperbolic falsehoods (claiming 'everyone' as audience and 'most people' as users) and lacking verifiable data. The score reflects the immense real-world utility and traction of the entity, significantly penalized by low Quality Factors due to the user's failure to provide accurate evidence.
