Certified Problem Solver

Peris.ai is a verified, VC-backed (East Ventures) cybersecurity startup with demonstrable traction (20% MoM growth reported in 2023) and industry awards. However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('most people have used my product') and vague data ('everyone'). The evaluation reflects the strong underlying business fundamentals and market relevance, heavily penalized by the lack of credible evidence provided in the submission.
