Category Standard

SkipTheDishes is a dominant, market-leading food delivery platform in Canada with verifiable massive scale ($670M+ annual revenue, ~3.7M monthly active users). While the project entity represents a high-utility, high-traction business significantly outperforming the calibration benchmark, the specific submission provided is of extremely low quality (missing data, vague claims, informal tone). The evaluation leverages external verification to award points for the entity's actual real-world status, but applies a conservative randomization factor and heavy penalties in the 'Response Quality' and 'Innovation' categories due to the lack of detailed evidence in the input.
