The submission appears to be a low-quality or automated entry containing significant errors and verifiable falsehoods. The description text is a copy-paste fragment referring to a different company (Telelogic/IBM) and includes editorial placeholder text ('?[what?s the pay-off?'). The claim that 'most people have used my product' is factually impossible for a specialized Oil & Energy consultancy. While a company named Petro-Geotech Inc. may exist, this submission fails to demonstrate any usefulness, traction, or coherent value proposition.
