OStream is a legitimate B2B entity specializing in Edge AI and Computer Vision infrastructure (partnered with OKdo and Arducam). However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('everyone uses my product') and missing data. While the technology (PipeRunner, Object MP4) shows promise and technical innovation, the discrepancy between the submission's hyperbolic claims and the niche B2B reality significantly impacts the score. The project falls into the 'Small/Minimal Traction' category due to its specialized industrial focus compared to mass-market benchmarks.
