The submission describes 'Remus Capital', a known VC firm, but contains significant contradictions and red flags indicating a low-quality or potentially fraudulent entry. While the domain 'remuscap.com' is legitimate, the submission claims a 2024 launch date (the firm was founded c. 2008/2010), states 'most people have used my product' (factually incorrect for a VC firm), and lists a confusing financial metric of '2.5M market cap' (likely erroneous for AUM). The disparity between the established brand and the amateurish data provided results in a very low score.

Description
We're looking for the rebels. We like defying the crowd, following our instincts, and proving them wrong. We love if you do too. REMUS is a VC firm that helps build, not bet on, companies transforming massive industries. We started from an MIT dorm room during the Great Recession and spent the last decade helping build industry-leading companies, often bringing them their biggest, million-dollar customers. The firm leads Seed, Series A, and early Series B deals and is generalist, although it has a particular interest in companies enabling digital transformation in large traditional industries and/or those commercializing research at the world's top groups. REMUS is a global firm and has offices in Boston, San Francisco, and London.
