The submission describes a boutique consulting firm rather than a scalable technology product. The input data contains significant inconsistencies, such as listing 'WhisperForge' as the name but describing 'Finntel' services. Claims regarding audience reach ('everyone') and traction ('most people have used my product') appear hyperbolic and likely refer to indirect client impact (e.g., telecom providers) rather than the project itself. The revenue metric is labeled 'marketcap', indicating potential confusion or data quality issues. No specific technical innovation is detailed beyond standard industry practices.
