Category Standard

HyperVerge is a verified, high-impact AI scale-up delivering critical identity verification infrastructure for over 450 enterprise clients (including Jio, Grab, and Vodafone) and verifying 1B+ identities. The project demonstrates exceptional Real-World Utility, Innovation (NIST top-rankings), and Market Relevance. However, the specific submission provided was low-effort, with lazy claims in the 'Evidence of Traction' and 'Audience Reach' fields (e.g., 'most people have used my product'). Consequently, the 'Response Quality' and 'Evidence of Traction' quality factors were heavily penalized, preventing a near-perfect score despite the company's confirmed $19M+ ARR and massive scale.
