While the core concept of applying computer vision to structural inspection holds high real-world utility, the submission is hindered by vague technical details and highly exaggerated claims regarding audience reach and traction. Claims such as 'everyone' for the audience and 'most people have used my product' for a niche B2B product result in low response quality and evidence scores, placing it in the minimal traction category.
