You're In Business

The project appears to be a standard local web agency with a submission characterized by hyperbolic and unverifiable claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'audience reach: everyone'). While the business may have longevity (founded 2007), the revenue data provided ('marketcap' of $2.5M all-time) contradicts the claimed team size of 30, suggesting either data errors or exaggeration. The inclusion of 'Arts & Crafts' as a technology further degrades the credibility of the technical response. The project lacks verifiable digital footprint relative to the claims made.
