Certified Problem Solver

Juji is an established Cognitive AI company (founded 2014) with legitimate B2B traction in Higher Education and Healthcare (e.g., University of Illinois). The technology distinguishes itself through 'Active Listening' and psychometric profiling (Big 5 personality traits), offering a sophisticated alternative to standard chatbots. However, the project submission itself contained objectively false claims regarding reach ('everyone') and traction ('most people have used my product'), which severely penalized the Quality and Reach scores despite the company's verifiable real-world revenue (~$2.8M est.) and team size (~47).
