How this ranking is built

Each brand gets a DHRMap presence score (0–100) from four transparent signals: market presence (volume of independent news coverage we track), verified profile, market signals (funding stage or amount on file), and profile depth (completeness of the company record). The score deliberately excludes any paid placement — Featured, Sponsored, and award packages have no effect on rank. Recognition is editorial; the optional packages only let a brand amplify a result it already earned.
