The submission conflates two distinct entities: 'Alberts' (alberts.be), a Belgian smoothie robotics startup (founded ~2015), and 'Aalberts N.V.', a Dutch industrial giant (founded 1975, 14k+ employees). While the smoothie robotics project has verifiable utility and innovation, the submission's data regarding team size, revenue, and launch date is factually incorrect for the provided URL. The score reflects the legitimate potential of the robotics project but is heavily penalized for false claims and data integrity failure.
