Certified Problem Solver

The project represents 'Impact International', a legitimate and established global consultancy (founded 1980, ~3000 verified employees). However, the submission quality is extremely poor, featuring exaggerated claims (e.g., audience is 'everyone', traction is 'most people') and a lack of specific evidence. While the underlying entity has significant real-world scale far exceeding the baseline, the score is heavily penalized by the lack of technical innovation (purely a service business) and the low effort/credibility of the submission data.
