Gaining Momentum

Pushy solves a genuine problem in adtech with an established push notification marketplace under Launch Potato. However, the submission relies on vague inputs ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') and confusing financial metrics ('all time marketcap: 2500000'). While the core business model appears viable and claims significant impression volume, the poor response quality and lack of specific, verifiable user traction data restrict the overall score.
