The submission contains extreme red flags and unsubstantiated claims, such as an audience reach of 'everyone' and traction asserting 'most people have used my product.' Technical details are unhelpfully vague ('Internet', 'Software Development'). Despite ERP automation being a genuinely useful concept with good market timing, the sheer lack of verifiable evidence and poor response quality result in heavy penalties, pushing the final score below zero.
