Idea	Revenue	Rev / Employee	How Grew	Built With	Solo Score A 0–100 estimate of how well-suited a business is to being run solo (or very lean). It blends weighted signals — team leanness, business model, growth channels, capital intensity, revenue per operator, tooling leverage, and recency — into one score. Marketplace and physical-asset businesses are capped lower. Higher = more solopreneur-friendly.
