GlareDB is a verifiable, high-utility SQL database project backed by Y Combinator (W23) with strong technical merit (Rust, DataFusion). However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing hyperbolic and demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience 'everyone'). The evaluation rewards the verifiable technology and market timing while heavily penalizing the traction and reach scores due to the unreliability of the provided data.
