The project 'Moonsense' (moonsense.io) appears to be a defunct fraud prevention startup. While it historically raised ~$4.2M in seed funding (May 2023) to analyze user behavioral biometrics ('digital body language'), verifiable public sources indicate the company has since ceased operations ('A Farewell to Moonsense'). The submission claims ('most people have used my product', 'audience reach: everyone') are hyperbolic and inconsistent with the project's specialized B2B nature and current shutdown status. The inclusion of 'construction' in technologies is irrelevant, and the response quality is extremely low.
