You're In Business

PC-APU appears to be a long-standing local IT support business in Lahti, Finland (est. 2002) rather than a scalable technology project. While the service provides real-world utility to its specific local demographic (seniors/small companies), the submission suffers significantly from exaggerated claims (reach: 'everyone', traction: 'most people have used my product') and a lack of verifiable digital metrics. The 'marketcap' figure is ambiguous, and there is no evidence of technological innovation or scalability comparable to the calibration benchmarks.
