Category Standard

L Marks is a verified, high-value corporate innovation consultancy with a strong track record (100+ initiatives, partners like BMW and Lloyd's of London) and estimated revenue of $10M-$25M. However, the project submission itself was of exceptionally low quality, containing lazy placeholders ('everyone', 'marketcap: null') and false claims ('most people have used my product'). The score reflects the substantial real-world utility and verifiable traction of the established business, heavily penalized by low Quality Factors (Qi) in specific categories due to the poor data entry.
