The project represents a legitimate, VC-backed company (Sawback Technologies) with high-utility technology for underground sensing and safety. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing factually incorrect claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'audience is everyone') and an unverified product name ('StarClaw' vs. actual product 'EdgeFuse'). While the underlying technology and business are promising (raised ~$2.65M, verified pilot projects), the Proof of Usefulness score is heavily penalized by the lack of credible evidence provided in the submission and the false traction claims.
