Ballbox

Ballbox (rebranded as Placement/Omni BOX) is a verifiable Chicago-based startup providing smart lockers and rental kiosks. While the business model has real-world utility and verified hardware deployments, the submission data is extremely poor. Claims such as 'most people have used my product' and an audience of 'everyone' are hyperbolic and inaccurate. The revenue field incorrectly lists a 'marketcap' of $4M, likely referencing a past valuation cap rather than operational revenue. The project receives credit for its physical existence and valid market problem, but is heavily penalized for low-quality, unreliable, and exaggerated input data.
