Gaining Momentum

appEQ.ai is a legitimate seed-stage B2B Customer Success platform with verified activity (G2 reviews, funding). However, the submission quality is critically low, containing hyperbolic and false claims ('most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone'). While the underlying technology and market fit are promising (scoring in the 100-250 range for 'Small but promising'), the project is heavily penalized for lack of credible evidence provided in the input and the disconnect between claims and reality.
