The project proposes a plausible IoT solution for cargo safety (ratchet strap tension monitoring) but lacks verifiable evidence of implementation. The submission contains demonstrably false claims regarding traction ('most people have used my product') and audience reach ('everyone'). The domain 'isecurestrap.com' does not appear to host an active commercial service, and the financial data provided is inconsistent with the traction claims. The project is assessed as an early-stage concept with significant red flags regarding credibility.
