ElevenPoint2 presents a valid niche use case (sales gamification) backed by a founder with impressive credentials (NASA). However, the project submission contains critical inaccuracies, such as claiming the audience is 'everyone' and that 'most people' have used the product, which severely damages credibility. External verification confirms the company exists since 2014 but ranks low among competitors (135th) and remains unfunded/bootstrapped, contradicting the implied scale. The low score reflects the lack of verifiable traction data, hyperbolic claims, and a crowded market position.
