Industry Mainstay

The project 'GoodAccess' (submitted as 'WhisperHeart') is a verifiable, high-traction cybersecurity SaaS with significant real-world utility and a team of ~125 employees. While the underlying business is strong (Series A funding, global reach, recognized by G2/TechRadar), the submission quality is critically low. Claims such as 'most people have used my product' are hyperbolic and false, and the revenue metric was entered as 'marketcap'. The score reflects the strong external reality of the business (comparable to or exceeding the calibration baseline) but is penalized heavily by low Quality Factors due to the poor data integrity of the submission.
