Certified Problem Solver

Citics.vn is a legitimate, venture-backed Series B proptech company in Vietnam with significant verified traction (~$5M funding, 125 employees, partnerships with 32 banks). However, the submission quality was extremely poor, containing false claims ('most people have used my product') and vague data. Despite the lazy submission, external verification confirms high real-world utility and a strong position in the B2B real estate valuation market.
