Industry Mainstay

Mezo is a legitimate property maintenance software company using AI for triage (Max), which raised $6M in funding and was acquired by Property Meld in January 2025. While the project itself demonstrates high utility and verified success (acquisition), the submission provided by the user ('BlazeStone') contained significant inaccuracies, such as claiming 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people' have used it. The score reflects the verifiable success of the technology and business outcome, heavily penalized in the Response Quality and Audience Reach sections due to the poor quality of the input data.
