The project 'Ask Ziggy' appears to be a legacy mobile application from 2012 (a Windows Phone Siri competitor) that is no longer commercially active in its original form. While the application had historical relevance and received investment from Kopin Corporation (which was later written off in 2014), the submission claims of 'everyone' reaching and 'most people have used my product' are unsubstantiated and likely conflate the defunct app with Amazon's unrelated 'Ziggy' wake word (introduced in 2021) or generic 'Zigbee' protocols. The submitter name 'IronHunter' (associated with online gaming handles) and the presence of 'all time marketcap: null' in the revenue field suggest a lack of professional seriousness or a 'zombie' project submission. There is no verifiable evidence of current utility, revenue, or active user base.
