Mentro addresses a valid need for tech upskilling in India, but the submission suffers from highly exaggerated claims ('most people have used my product'), vague metrics ('marketcap 500000'), and overall poor response quality. With an unverified 20,000 claimed students, it clearly falls into the minimal traction category.
