Approveit is a functional Slack-based workflow automation tool with verifiable existence and moderate utility for B2B teams. However, the submission quality is extremely low, featuring hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and missing financial data. While the product solves a genuine problem (approvals in Slack) and has achieved some traction (Product Hunt history, ~100 teams), the lack of professional detail and the exaggerated reach claims significantly severely limit the score to the 'minimal traction' tier.
