You're In Business

The project 'DeadHappy' (submitted as 'SwiftKeeper') is a legitimate UK-based insurtech company that achieved significant scale (£2.5M+ revenue, ~25,000 customers). However, verifiable external data confirms the company entered administration in June 2024 and is closed to new business following regulatory and underwriting issues. While the project demonstrates high 'Proof of Usefulness' through historical adoption, its current viability is minimal. The submission quality was extremely low, containing incorrect names ('SwiftKeeper') and hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product').
