Ask Themis (Ask Themis, Inc.) is a legitimate B2B compliance platform that raised $9M in seed funding (2020) and offers 30+ modules for fintechs and banks. However, the submission quality is critically low, containing demonstrably false claims such as 'most people have used my product' (it is a niche B2B tool) and an audience of 'everyone'. While the underlying technology and market timing are strong, the PoU score is severely impacted by the lack of verifiable evidence provided in the input and the hyperbolic nature of the responses.
