You're In Business

The project operates in a highly relevant sector (AI chatbots and business automation) but provides overwhelmingly vague and exaggerated claims. Assertions such as an audience reach of 'everyone' and traction where 'most people have used my product' are entirely unsupported. The lack of verifiable evidence and sparse response quality results in heavy penalties across all technical and traction-related criteria.
