You're In Business

BotRx appears to be a 'deadpooled' or inactive venture that previously raised ~$13.5M (Series B) before ceasing significant operations around 2020. While the core technology (Moving Target Defense, AI) was innovative and patented, current market signals indicate the company is no longer competitive or active. The submission contains verifiable falsehoods regarding traction ('most people have used my product') and audience reach ('everyone'), and the revenue field is malformed. The project is evaluated as a legacy technology with minimal current utility.
