Gaining Momentum

The submission describes '247 Group', a verified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) with approximately $1.8M in federal contract history (Air Force/Army). However, the submission contains significant inaccuracies: it claims a team size of 125 (actual appears to be <10), an audience of 'everyone' (actual is niche B2G), and a product named 'DeepWing' which appears to be non-existent or internal-only with no public footprint. While the underlying consultancy is a legitimate small business, the submission quality is critically low and exaggerated.
