The submission outlines a plausible business in the Industrial IoT sector but is severely undermined by nonsensical responses in the application. Claims such as 'everyone' being the target audience and 'most people have used my product' contradict the reality of an enterprise edge computing company with a $2.5M market cap. This indicates extremely minimal traction relative to the company's 2016 launch date and results in heavy penalties across all metrics due to vague and unsupported claims.

Description
Oxys Corporation is a cutting edge IIoT company using domain-specific AI to solve industrial and environmental challenges. We develop hardware, software and algorithms that monitor, measure and predict conditions for energy, structural, agricultural and medical applications. Our engineered solutions focus on common sense approaches to machine learning, algorithm development and hardware and software products. We are driven by a passion to develop and push domain intelligence to “the edge”. Our strengths are threefold: - RUGGED, ADAPTABLE HARDWARE. Open, reconfigurable hardware architecture that adapts to a wide range of customer needs and applications; - OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE TOOLS. We fully leverage open source software tools while still creating proprietary content for customers, thereby reducing software development time and cost; - EDGE COMPUTING ALGORITHMS. Since we don’t waste time developing tools, we focus on developing insights. We have developed powerful edge computing algorithms that help our customers create insights from vast data streams.
