Bomadu addresses a genuine problem (housing affordability for first-time buyers) but the submission is severely compromised by false claims and a lack of verifiable progress. While the company entity exists and raised small pre-seed funding in 2022 (~£87k), the product appears to remain in a 'waitlist' phase despite a claimed 2019 launch. The submission falsely claims 'most people have used my product' and lists 'everyone' as the audience, which drastically reduces credibility. The reported metrics are nonsensical (market cap listed as revenue).
