The submission for 'Refobe' (submitted under the name 'DeepShade') presents significant credibility issues. While Refobe appears to be a generic web development and AI agency based on its website, the submission claims 'everyone' as the audience and states that 'most people have used my product,' which is demonstrably false for a small agency established in 2024. The revenue metric ('all time marketcap: 2500000') is misused and unverifiable. The discrepancy between the project name 'DeepShade' and the business name 'Refobe,' combined with the lack of specific technical details ('Internet' listed as the only technology), results in a near-zero score reflecting low effort and dubious claims.
