Flux Outdoor is a verifiable UK-based Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) advertising platform founded in 2015. While the project is legitimate and the technology (data-triggered billboards) offers real-world utility, the submission quality is critically low. The claim 'most people have used my product' is factually incorrect for a B2B platform, and the 'audience reach' claim of 'everyone' is misleading. External data indicates the company has remained very small (~4-6 employees) over 9 years, with some associated legal entities listed as 'Deadpooled' or dissolved, suggesting a lifestyle business or boutique agency rather than a high-growth tech venture. The lack of verifiable revenue data and the flippant nature of the submission heavily impact the score.
