Category Standard

Knoetic is a verified Series B People Analytics platform backed by Accel and EQT Ventures, with over $54M in funding and a robust community of 2,000+ Chief People Officers. Despite the high value of the actual project, the submission itself contained low-quality data (e.g., claiming 'most people have used my product' and listing 'neuroscience' as a technology). The score reflects the project's proven real-world traction and utility, heavily penalized for the inaccurate and poor-quality submission details.
