Gaining Momentum

Insane AI is a verified fitness-tech startup based in Bengaluru, founded in 2021 by IIT Bombay alumni. The company raised ~$900k in seed funding (pi Ventures) and reported ~100k registered users in 2022 with its computer-vision-powered workout app. However, the project submission contains hyperbolic and false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'audience reach: everyone'), which severely impacts the Quality Factor of the evaluation. While the underlying technology and verifiable traction place it in the 'Small but promising' category, the low-effort submission necessitates significant penalties.
