The submission for Genie AI (genieai.io) presents significant discrepancies and credibility issues. While the entity appears to exist as a Toronto-based applied AI consultancy or lab, the submission claims 'most people have used my product,' which is demonstrably false. The stated team size (125) contradicts the low capital raised ($200k according to external data) and the 'market cap' figure provided ($2.5M), suggesting either a misunderstanding of metrics or an inflated headcount (likely including community members or unpaid contributors). The technical description is vague ('Internet'), and the confusion with the well-established UK legal tech firm 'Genie AI' (genieai.co) further complicates the identity. The project appears to be a buzzword-heavy consultancy with minimal verifiable mass-market traction, despite the grandiose claims.
