Category Standard

Cardiologs is a highly significant medical technology project, evidenced by its acquisition by Philips and regulatory clearances (FDA/CE). The technology (deep learning for ECG analysis) represents high innovation and real-world utility. However, the submission quality is notably poor; claims like 'most people have used my product' and audience reach of 'everyone' are factually incorrect exaggerations for a specialized B2B medical device. Despite the low-effort data entry, the underlying verifiable project value warrants a high score.
