Do you know what no score means? Pushbullet seem like they should have one.

We don't score companies until we have 4 weeks of data, so for some that we haven't been tracking for long we just don't have enough info yet - sorry!

Has anyone ever studied whether momentum is a good measure for eventual success (whatever that might mean)?

Mattermark is fairly new, so I doubt that many companies would have had a concrete track record of success.

Exactly. We have 1 year of data, and are certainly backtesting. So far the only thing we can really test is whether momentum helps with fundraising... more on that soon

Good to hear! I was thinking of doing something similar, but no reason to duplicate effort
