FortMesa is a verifiable, seed-funded cybersecurity SaaS designed for Managed Service Providers (MSPs), with confirmed industry partnerships (ConnectWise, CompTIA) and a launch date of 2017. Despite the project's legitimate B2B utility and strong market relevance in the cybersecurity compliance space, the submission itself is of critically poor quality. The applicant provided demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience reach: 'everyone') and lazy data entry. The final score reflects the project's valid underlying business fundamentals (Seed stage, B2B traction) while heavily penalizing the inaccurate and unprofessional submission details.
