DoogleBooks appears to be a small e-commerce operation selling rebranded LCD writing tablets with a focus on eco-friendliness. While the mission to save paper is commendable, the project lacks technical innovation, relying on commoditized hardware. The submission contains significant credibility issues, including the demonstrably false claim that 'most people have used my product' and a confusing 'marketcap: 50000' financial metric which likely indicates very low total revenue ($50k) relative to the claimed team size of 30. The project demonstrates minimal traction and operates in a saturated market.

Description
Our Mission Here at DoogleBooks®, we’re passionate about making a positive change for the future. Our motto is “Combining Tradition with Innovation” and every day we’re doing our best to follow that motto by changing the way people use technology to read, write, and perform basic daily tasks. By using our knowledge of modern technology, we’re constantly innovating ways to help people everywhere be more conservative with the resources they use and how they use them. One way we accomplish this is by being more mindful of our environment and producing products that provide our customers a way to be eco-friendlier, while still integrating modern technology into their daily lives. With our first product the “Pro LCD Writing Board”, we aim to save up to at least 3 trees throughout each Pro Board’s lifespan. As we continue to release more fantastic and cutting-edge products, we also hope to improve the lives of everyone who uses them. We aim to achieve this by providing them with a way to concentrate on their work without having to worry about outside distractions from the internet like you would on standard smart devices. Just leaving you alone with your thoughts and creativity to help guide your creations.
