Build Up Labs is a legitimate and successful startup studio in Lisbon, Portugal, with verified exits (e.g., 'Tap My Back' to a strategic buyer, 'F*ck Marry Kill' game). The studio has demonstrated the ability to build products with significant reach (10M+ downloads for FMK). However, the project submission itself is of extremely poor quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone') and lacking specific data. The score reflects the verifiable success of the entity (comparable to the calibration benchmark) while penalizing the lack of professional detail in the application.
