Gaining Momentum

Breev (formerly evCrowdRoute) is a verifiable South African EV charging infrastructure provider with legitimate operational history since 2019/2020. External search confirms partnerships with GridCars and BMW, and physical charger installations. However, the project submission is of very poor quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product', 'everyone') and confusing revenue with market cap. While the real-world utility of sustainable logistics/EV infrastructure is high, the project's reach is currently niche (regional B2C/B2B), and the submission fails to accurately reflect its actual traction.
