The submission for Bigsky Technologies contains significant red flags and inconsistencies. The claim that 'most people have used my product' is verifiably false or hyperbolic, undermining credibility. The financial metric ('marketcap: 50000') is unclear and disproportionately low for a claimed team size of 30 operating since 2018. The project admits to pivoting away from its core hardware technology due to competition from Starlink, transitioning to a service/consulting model with vague utility descriptions. The website 'agrogator.tech' does not appear to be widely indexed or active.

Description
Big Sky Technologies was founded in 2018 to specialize in solving the problem of connectivity and data in rural areas. We developed a unique mobile roof mounted cellular modem and lorawan uplinks - however quickly unearthing products about to be launched such as Starlink, NB-iot and Nextivity's Cel-fi boosters, we refocussed on projects enabling rural customers to adopt and transition into the digital age.
