Ubiik Inc. is a substantial Industrial IoT player (Scale: ~$20M Revenue, 60-70 employees) with confirmed contracts exceeding $50M from Taiwan Power Corporation (Taipower). While the user submission was low-quality (vague claims like 'audience: everyone' and 'traction: most people'), external verification confirms they manage over 1 million smart meters using proprietary Weightless LPWAN and LTE technology. The project scores highly on Utility, Traction, and Innovation due to its critical infrastructure role and proven B2B scaling, though the Response Quality score is heavily penalized.
