Industry Mainstay

Streamlined (YC S20) is a legitimate B2B fintech company offering an AI-powered order-to-cash platform. While the submission provided extremely poor and inaccurate data (claiming 'everyone' as audience and 'most people' as users), external verification confirms significant traction with over 80K businesses supported and robust year-over-year growth. The score reflects the high potential of the underlying business, heavily penalized by the low quality and lack of effort in the submission.
