You're In Business

The project submission represents HERBL Solutions, a cannabis distributor that collapsed into receivership in mid-2023 and is no longer operational. The submission contains hyperbolic and false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience reach 'everyone') and lists non-technical keywords (e.g., 'art') as technology. As the entity is defunct with significant unpaid industry debt and the submission quality is extremely low, the project demonstrates no current utility or traction.
