HubSpot scope-matched sync claims on marketplace page
Describe sync directions and permissions exactly as the installed scopes support them, and remove unused scopes before you ask the market to trust the integration.
Why this can grow a startup
Integration listings often leak trust when the promise is bigger than the permissions. HubSpot makes the discipline explicit: if an app claims bi-directional sync for an object, the requested scopes need to support that claim, and scopes that are not used should be removed. That is useful beyond review compliance. It gives buyers a cleaner mental model of what the app actually does, reduces install hesitation, and cuts the gap between the sales story and the post-install reality.
Company example
HubSpot's marketplace requirements say bi-directional sync should only be advertised for objects where the app requests both read and write scopes, unused scopes must be removed, and apps that depend on a browser extension must also be approved in the browser's official extension marketplace.

When to use it
Use this when Marketplaces, Sales, Website is relevant to evaluation, permissions, integrations and you can run a bounded test with a low budget.
When not to use it
Do not use it as a substitute for customer evidence, a clear owner, or a measurable stop condition. Local platform rules and market behavior still need checking.
