Industry Mainstay

Kovo HealthTech is a publicly traded (TSXV: KOVO) billing-as-a-service company with significant verifiable scale (~$15M+ revenue, 125 employees, 10 acquisitions). The project solves a high-utility problem in healthcare financial administration. However, the submission quality is extremely poor (user 'ShadowWing', false claims of 'everyone' as audience), necessitating a strict quality penalty. Despite the low-effort entry, the underlying business fundamentals and verified external data support a score well above the calibration baseline for established companies.
