You're In Business

The project addresses a high-utility sector (solar energy in Mozambique) with a clear value proposition. However, the submission is heavily penalized for hyperbolic and unverifiable traction claims ('most people have used my product'), inconsistent project naming ('SwiftShade' vs 'Simsol'), and misuse of financial terminology ('marketcap' for revenue). No verifiable digital footprint was found for the domain.
