The project submission suffers from severe credibility issues, primarily due to the hyperbolic claim that 'most people have used' the product, which contradicts the team size of 6 and lack of brand recognition. The technical description ('Internet') provides no insight into the stack or innovation. While the revenue figure (500,000) suggests some activity, the phrasing 'all time marketcap' is ambiguous. The submission scores poorly on response quality and evidence of traction due to these unverifiable and vague assertions.
