Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Scalio is a highly established digital product agency (12+ years) with verifiable top-tier clients including Google, Uber, and Airbnb. While the submission form itself contains lazy responses (e.g., 'everyone', 'Computer Software'), the underlying business reality is strong: estimated $8M-$17M annual revenue, ~100 employees, and a proven track record of delivering high-impact software. The project scores highly on traction and utility, though it is a service business rather than a scalable SaaS product. The 'marketcap' figure likely refers to annual revenue or a specific valuation event.
