You're In Business

Rainbow Sensors is a verified UK-based business (Rainbow Sensors Scotland Ltd) distributing mmWave fall detection technology, a high-utility application for the elderly care sector. External search confirms over 2,000 sensors deployed, indicating legitimate traction. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience is 'everyone') and vague technical details ('Internet'). The score reflects the solid real-world utility of the business, heavily penalized by the lack of credible data provided in the submission fields.
