Gaining Momentum

Qoohoo was a legitimate, venture-backed creator economy platform (raised ~$3M, YC-backed) founded in 2020. However, the project appears to be inactive or deprioritized, as the founder (Vimal Singh Rathore) has moved on to a new YC startup, SuperKalam (YC W23). The submission itself is of extremely poor quality, containing clearly false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product') and mislabeled data (valuation pasted as revenue). While the project has historical verification of usefulness and funding, its current utility is negligible.
