You're In Business

Eyebotix LLC is a legitimate embedded systems consultancy led by a highly experienced engineer (ex-Blue Origin, Amazon). However, the submission lists the project name as 'FrostShade', for which no public record exists, suggesting a mislabeling or an early-stage internal concept. The traction claims ('most people have used my product', 'everyone') are hyperbolic, likely referencing the founder's past employment work rather than the specific project. While the founder's expertise is verifiable and valuable, the submission fails to define a clear, scalable product, resulting in a low score driven by ambiguity and poor audience definition.
