The submission for 'StarShade' refers to the 'Jörg Löhr Akademie', a well-established German coaching and seminar business founded in 1995. While the submission quality is extremely poor (incorrect name, hyperbolic claims like 'most people', confusing revenue metrics), external verification confirms Jörg Löhr is a 'Hall of Fame' speaker with significant traction, corporate clients (Porsche, IBM), and a team of ~30-100 staff/coaches. The project lacks technical innovation as a service business but scores highly on real-world utility and verified traction within its DACH market niche. The score is calibrated to ~280 (comparable to established SMEs) rather than higher due to the lack of technology and poor submission data.
