DrinkPrime is a legitimate, Series B funded startup with significant traction (~$5.7M annual revenue, 160k+ subscribers) and a clear real-world utility in the water purification market. While the submission data was low-quality (exaggerated claims like 'most people', ambiguous market cap figures), external verification confirms it is a high-growth company operating at a scale well above the calibration baseline.
