Certified Problem Solver

Giskard is a legitimate, high-potential AI safety and red-teaming platform with verified backing from Elaia and Bessemer, and enterprise clients like BNP Paribas and Google DeepMind. However, the submission itself contained significant quality issues, including hyperbolic claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') and misused financial terminology. While the project's real-world utility, technical innovation, and market timing are exceptional, the score is heavily penalized by the poor quality of the evidence provided and the false claims regarding audience reach.
