The project addresses a relevant problem (home energy optimization) but suffers from critical credibility issues. The claim that "most people have used my product" is demonstrably false for a niche startup, and the "marketcap" figure is ambiguous. With no verifiable external footprint, vague technical descriptions, and hyperbolic traction claims, the submission scores exceptionally low on reliability and reach.
