RecordBook (rkd.app) is a verifiable YC-backed startup (Winter 2021) offering mobile bookkeeping for SMBs, with significant traction (~1M downloads, 7.6k+ ratings) and verified funding (~$825K). However, the submission quality is critically low, with hyperbolic claims ('most people'), incorrect data fields (Marketcap entered as Revenue), and vague descriptions. The project scores highly on utility and verifiable traction, but suffers severe penalties for submission quality and lack of provided evidence.
