Gaining Momentum

Aistetic is a legitimate University of Oxford spinout with high-potential computer vision technology for 3D body sizing, validated by funding ($688K, Techstars) and B2B partnerships (Messina Hembry). However, the submission itself contained wildly exaggerated claims ('most people have used my product', 'everyone') and lacked detail, which severely impacted the Audience Reach and Response Quality scores. While the underlying technology and market timing are excellent, the discrepancy between the submission's claims and verified reality introduces significant penalties.
