GetGround is a substantial UK-based PropTech scale-up offering infrastructure for buy-to-let company incorporation and management. Verified external data confirms they manage over £2B in assets for 30k+ investors and have raised significant venture funding (Series A). However, the project submission itself was of low quality, containing factually incorrect claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience 'everyone') and lacking verifiable evidence, which significantly penalized the score despite the company's strong real-world fundamentals.

Description
GetGround is developing the infrastructure for a global digital marketplace for assets enveloped in companies. Trillions of dollars of assets are tied in inefficient illiquid markets - think property, ships, factory machinery and infrastructure to name a few.\n\nEnveloping an asset in a company unlocks liquidity by enabling the right legal basis for asset ownership, governance and exchange. However companies, one of humanity's greatest inventions, are stuck in the past. We are digitising and automating the company, through:\n\n- Programmatic incorporation and administration\n- e-wallet financial infrastructure\n- Automated accounting incorporating machine learning techniques and\n- A secondary market platform built for scale\n\nTo start, we're tackling UK private residential investment property, with £1.3 trillion of stock and £30-50 billion in transactions a year.\n\nWe are doing this through our all-in-one platform to help clients easily manage buy-to-let properties in one unified place.
