Does the model qualify?
A high score cannot offset a failed filter.
F01Lawful activityUnknown
Method: applicability review of the supplied terms against our proposed US email-marketing launch. HubSpot's contractual compliance commitments do not establish our legal eligibility. Applicable federal email-marketing and privacy conditions are not verified; state-specific privacy, registration and tax conditions remain unresolved without selected states. Permission-based lists and suppression functionality are proposed controls, not proof of compliance.
The only supplied document is a comparable company's contract, not an applicable legal analysis of our launch.
F02Delivered entirely onlinePass
Method: operating-design assessment supported by the comparable's web-based subscription service and remote consulting provisions. Our newsletter creation, suppression management, external email delivery and reporting can be delivered and supported entirely online. Judgment assumes support remains remote; no own physical operations are included in the proposed design.
The digital workflow is explicit, but our implementation and support arrangements are not yet documented.
F03No own special licenceUnknown
Method: licensing applicability review. Our proposed role excludes lending, custody and insurance, but the supplied HubSpot terms do not verify whether our specific US role requires any special licence before serving customers. The external delivery and payment providers are not selected, and applicable state-specific requirements remain unresolved.
No licensing authority or role-specific legal determination is supplied.
F04Recurring revenuePass
Method: contractual comparison. General Terms sections 3 and 4 document prepaid subscription fees and renewal; Product Specific Terms section 3 documents marketing-contact tiers and email-send limits. This supports an applicable recurring mechanism for our proposed prepaid contact- or sending-volume subscription. Judgment assumes we implement subscription billing; it does not establish customer demand or actual revenue.
The source directly documents a recurring commercial mechanism closely matching the proposal.
F05No credit riskPass
Method: money-flow and obligation comparison. Our design collects prepaid subscriptions through an external operator and expressly excludes lending and guarantees, so it does not make us a creditor or guarantor. HubSpot's invoice terms and Solutions Partner payment guarantee in section 3.5 are not adopted by our proposal. Judgment assumes no customer credit or partner-payment guarantees are introduced.
The proposed boundaries are explicit, but our payment and customer contracts are not supplied.
F06No insurance riskPass
Method: role comparison. Our proposed product supplies email-marketing software services and expressly excludes insuring customers. HubSpot's section 11.13 concerns purchasing business liability insurance, not underwriting customer risks, and does not impose its coverage commitments on us. Judgment assumes our offer contains no insurance undertaking.
The operating design excludes insurance risk; final contractual obligations remain unverified.
F07No custody of client fundsPass
Method: proposed funds-flow assessment and contractual comparison. Our design holds no client funds and routes settlement directly through an external operator. The comparable separately documents third-party payment processing in section 3.3 and distinguishes payment services from subscription services. Judgment assumes our operator settles payments without any client balance or custody account controlled by us; HubSpot's wider payment operations are not attributed to us.
Direct external settlement is an explicit design boundary, but provider agreements and implementation are not supplied.
F08Not a trading businessPass
Method: product-scope comparison. The source documents marketing-email and contact-management subscriptions, consistent with our newsletter and reporting proposal. Our core activity is email-marketing software, not trading. Judgment assumes the stated product scope remains unchanged.
The proposed customer job and comparable product category are clearly unrelated to trading.
F09Independent of government servicesPass
Method: buyer and function assessment. Our baseline targets small businesses and performs no government function or state service; government procurement is not the proposed sales foundation. The source's Appendix 2 applies specifically to government customers and does not make its private marketing subscription product a government service. Judgment assumes our stated private-business buyer focus.
The proposal explicitly defines a private-business customer and excludes state-service functions.
F10A comparable valued at $300M+Unknown
Method: comparable-scale evidence review. The source confirms HubSpot Marketing Hub's subscription offering but provides no documented company valuation of at least $300 million. Neither product capacity nor contractual coverage amounts establish valuation. A qualifying large comparable remains unverified, not disproved.
No valuation evidence is present in the supplied document.
Critic, Verifier and scoring wait until mandatory checks pass. No conclusions from those stages are available yet.
