Gaining Momentum

Sismics is a verified French IT consulting firm (Sismics SAS) established in 2016 with legitimate open-source products like 'Teedy' (DMS) and 'Sismics Reader'. However, the submission quality is extremely poor, containing hyperbolic claims ('audienceReach: everyone', 'most people have used my product') that contradict the niche nature of their tools. The revenue figure likely conflates 'market cap' with 'share capital' (Capital Social: 50,000 EUR). While the underlying business and technology are real, the submission fails to demonstrate the claimed scale or traction.
