The submission describes an engineering consulting firm but lacks verifiable evidence of existence or traction. The project name 'DeepHunter' appears unrelated to the company description and likely refers to a third-party product (e.g., a metal detector or research paper). Claims such as 'most people have used my product' are hyperbolic and unsupported. The provided URL does not have a prominent search presence, and financial metrics are confusingly stated.
