You're In Business

Idea Regulatory is a legitimate, established consultancy (est. ~2006) serving the pharmaceutical industry with high-value regulatory advice. However, the project submission contains significant data quality issues, claiming the audience is 'everyone' and 'most people have used my product,' which contradicts the specialized B2B nature of the business. While the real-world utility for its niche is high, the project lacks technical innovation (service-based) and the submission's credibility is undermined by inaccurate traction claims. The score reflects a stable, useful service business evaluated within a technology-growth framework, penalized for poor submission data.
