The submission for 'NATE' (getnate.io) presents significant red flags indicating a low-effort, potentially fictitious, or highly inaccurate entry. The domain 'getnate.io' has no discernible digital footprint or search presence, contradicting the claim of a 32-50 person team active since 2018. The description (cohort-based business education) conflicts with the declared business type (ecommerce). The traction claim ('most people have used my product') is objectively false and hyperbolic. Without verifiable evidence of existence, users, or revenue, the project scores near zero across all meaningful metrics.
