Transit (transitapp.com) is a market-leading urban mobility platform with high verifiable utility and millions of active users, positioning it well above the 'Much larger scale' calibration threshold. However, the submission itself contained significant inaccuracies, including exaggerated team size (894-1400 vs actual ~100) and confused financial metrics (citing a $3.3B market cap, likely a data error or confusion with Via, vs actual Series B status). While the product's real-world dominance drives a high score, the 'Response Quality' and 'Evidence of Traction' metrics were heavily penalized due to the hyperbolic and inaccurate input data.
