You're In Business

The project 'ProSeed.co' (ProSeed Ingredients SA) is a legitimate Swiss food-tech startup focused on upcycling wet biomass (brewery spent grains) into valuable ingredients. This is a high-utility, circular economy concept with verified pilot operations and trade fair presence. However, the submission itself appears to be of very low quality or potential 'hijack' (submitted by 'GoldenClaw', a likely unrelated crypto handle). The submission contains demonstrably false claims (Team size 125 vs actual ~10-15; 'Marketcap 17000000' vs private startup status; 'Audience: everyone' vs B2B reality). The score reflects the high potential of the actual underlying business, heavily penalized by the lack of verifiable evidence in the submission and the false metrics provided.
