You're In Business

Competent Groove is a verifiable business (est. 2013) offering 'FeetPort', a field force automation tool. External search confirms ~21 employees and ~$224k annual revenue (2022). However, the project submission is of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('audienceReach: everyone', 'most people have used my product') and missing critical data ('marketcap: null'). While the underlying business has valid utility and longevity, the score is heavily penalized due to the lack of verifiable evidence in the submission and exaggerated claims.
