Category Standard

Socialive is a verifiable, high-growth enterprise video platform with estimated annual revenue of ~$7.3M and a team of 50-60, placing it well above the calibration baseline. The project demonstrates strong real-world utility and market timing. However, the submission quality is exceptionally poor; the submitter (using a valid corporate email) provided hyperbolic and lazy responses for traction and audience ('most people have used my product', 'everyone'). The score reflects the strong fundamentals of the business found via external verification, heavily penalized by the low quality of the specific submission data.
