Gaining Momentum

The project URL and description correspond to eWATERservices, a verified UK-based company providing IoT smart water taps in Africa (Gambia, Tanzania, Ghana) with significant impact (~350k users, 1B liters dispensed). However, the submission itself contains major errors, including an incorrect name ('WhisperForge') and hallucinatory traction claims ('most people have used my product'). The score reflects the high real-world utility and verified technological implementation of eWATERservices, heavily penalized by the low quality and inaccuracy of the submission data.
