CureSee is a legitimate verified startup (Shark Tank India Season 2) offering AI-based vision therapy for Amblyopia. While the project has verifiable utility and early market presence (~9,000 patients, ~$45k verified annual revenue), the submission quality was extremely poor. The user claimed 'everyone' as the audience (false; it is a niche medical condition) and stated 'most people have used my product' (demonstrably false). These exaggerated claims heavily penalized the Traction and Reach scores via the Quality Factor, keeping the final score in the 'Minimal Traction' tier (<50k users).

Description
CureSee is the world's first AI-based vision therapy software for the treatment of Amblyopia (lazy eye). The issue we're addressing is Amblyopia, a vision disorder in which the eye cannot see well even with the finest spectacle or contact lens solution. The traditional approach was to patch one eye every day for a long period, which had detrimental consequences (cosmetic embarrassment in patients, very slow improvement rate, poor compliance, ineffective in adults, recurrence of amblyopia after stopping patching). CureSee offers gamified exercises based on scientific modules that have been clinically proven as most effective to help amblyopia patients improve their vision. CureSee can treat amblyopia irrespective of age in less time with simpler access. The treatment is now fun with CureSee's gamified vision therapy exercises that can be performed at home or at work.
