The project attempts to solve a genuine problem regarding the decline of 'Third Spaces', but the submission contains severe red flags. Claims such as 'most people have used my product' are entirely unsupported, and critical data like active users is missing. The quality factor is heavily penalized across most categories due to vague, unverified, and exaggerated information.

Description
We create technologies that entertain and connect people in the "Third Space". Non-digital social environments, like bars restaurants, cafes, and parks, are slowly getting left behind by digital entertainment as people opt for in-home options. Our mission is to enhance these spaces with technology that helps people create in-person connections with like-minded peers. In the present, we are creating mobile games with unique properties for social spaces and human connection. We hope to bring the TriviaGo mobile experience to millions of people. What the future holds, is the convergence of technologies like AR, Google Maps, GPS, 5G, AI and Machine Learning with social sciences to influence more social, meaningful, and real-connected communities.
