Category Standard

The project represents 'The Predictive Index', a widely recognized and established talent optimization platform with significant verifiable traction (447 employees, ~$87M estimated revenue, founded 1955). While the submission itself was low-effort (vague claims, missing fields), the verifiable external data provided (URL, team size, founding date) confirms it is a 'Much Larger Scale' entity. The score reflects the massive real-world utility and traction of the business, slightly penalized by the poor quality of the submission text.
