Category Standard

Tradify is a highly successful, established SaaS platform for tradespeople, evidenced by its acquisition by The Access Group in 2024 (reported ~$100M+ deal). While the project itself demonstrates exceptional real-world utility and traction (55k+ users), the specific submission provided is of low quality, containing vague claims ('everyone') and confusing metrics ('marketcap: 17000000'). The score reflects the proven high value and verifiable success of the business, significantly penalized by the poor response quality of the submission.
