The project 'Melissa' refers to Melissa Data Corp, a verifiable and established industry leader in data quality and address verification since 1985. External validation confirms significant scale (~$70M annual revenue, ~500 employees), which places it in the 'Much larger scale' category. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality: it claims '3000 employees' (likely exaggerated), lists a nonsensical 'marketcap' value, and provides 'most people have used my product' as evidence. The score reflects the high verifiable utility and market position of the company, heavily penalized by the poor response quality and lack of substantiated evidence in the submission.
