Industry Mainstay

RevolutionParts is a verified market leader in automotive eCommerce, powering over $625M in annual parts sales and employing ~145 people (Inc. 5000 honoree). While the user submission was poor (lazy claims of 'everyone' and 'most people'), the actual business utility and traction are exceptional. The score reflects the high real-world value and established market presence, balanced against a penalty for the low-effort submission.
