The project addresses a legitimate B2B use case (disintermediating private aviation fuel purchasing), but the submission is critically flawed. The input claims the target audience is 'everyone' and that 'most people have used my product,' which is factually impossible for a niche aviation platform. Additionally, the revenue field cites 'marketcap' rather than actual cash flow. While the business entity appears to exist, the submission fails to provide credible evidence of traction, detailed technology, or realistic reach, resulting in a low score due to low-quality/false input data.
