You're In Business

Blink ESS targets a highly relevant energy storage market, but the submission is marred by exaggerated and unsupported claims. Asserting that 'most people have used my product' for a 6-person team with unverified financials is a significant red flag. The description relies heavily on generic marketing copy from a social media post rather than concrete technical or business metrics, placing it firmly in the minimal traction category.
