Gaining Momentum

INSOFTDEV appears to be a legitimate, established B2B software provider ('SmartCar') for the taxi/mobility industry with verifiable global clients and revenue (~$1.4M est). However, the specific project submission provided is of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') and lacking specific data. While the underlying business has real-world utility and verified traction (1.9M+ passengers processed cumulatively), the score is significantly penalized by the poor response quality and the submitter's reliance on hyperbole over evidence. The project falls into the 'Comparable scale' or 'Small but promising' category relative to the calibration.
