You're In Business

The submission describes 'DeNovo Legal', a legitimate niche law firm in Galway specializing in life sciences, but is submitted under the unrelated name 'WhisperHeart'. The submission contains critical inaccuracies, including false audience claims ('everyone'), hallucinated traction ('most people have used my product'), and nonsensical revenue metrics ('all time marketcap'). While the underlying business exists and has utility in its niche, the submission itself is incoherent and contradictory.
