Certified Problem Solver

Rayyan provides genuine utility as an AI-assisted literature review tool for researchers. However, the submission features severely exaggerated and unverified claims, including an audience reach of 'everyone', traction evidence stating 'most people have used my product', and a nonsensical financial metric. As a result, the quality multipliers for reach, traction, and response quality have been heavily penalized.
