Scarf (scarf.sh) is a verified, VC-backed company (Series Seed/A, ~$7.3M raised) providing significant utility in the open-source software supply chain. While the submission itself was of extremely poor quality (containing hyperbolic claims like 'most people have used my product' and empty data fields), external evaluation confirms substantial real-world traction, including tracking over 2 billion downloads annually and a team size consistent with the 26-31 employee range. The project scores highly on utility and market timing, but the final score is dampened by the low quality of the provided evidence.
