Cyborg Score Rationale
Ajaib achieved unicorn status in 2021 within 2.5 years of inception, demonstrating exceptional execution and market traction. With over 1 million users as the third-largest brokerage by transaction volume in Indonesia, the company has achieved significant scale in a growing market. Strong backing from tier-one global investors and a compelling mission-driven thesis position it well, though private status and concentration in a single geography present moderate risk.
