PeoplePerHour is a highly established freelance marketplace (founded 2007) with verifiable traction (1.4M+ users, ~$20M+ est. revenue, $33M+ funding). The submission accurately cites a Tracxn-reported valuation ($380M) and employee count (7, likely a specific legal entity figure), though the latter contradicts the operational reality of a platform this size (~130+ employees). While the platform's utility and market position are strong (scoring above typical benchmarks like HackerNoon), the submission itself was minimal ('everyone', 'most people have used my product'), necessitating significant Quality Factor penalties. The final score reflects the high intrinsic value of the verified platform adjusted for the low effort of the submission.
