You're In Business

Smplrspace is a legitimate early-stage B2B startup offering a digital floor plan API (smplr.js), backed by ~$600K in pre-seed funding (May 2022). While the technology is verifiable and solves a genuine problem in the PropTech sector (simplifying 2D/3D floor plan integration), the project submission itself was of extremely low quality. The submitter made demonstrably false claims regarding traction ('most people have used my product') and audience reach ('everyone'), which significantly penalized the score. The evaluation reflects a promising technical product with niche B2B utility, severely weighed down by a lack of serious verifiable metrics in the submission and hyperbolic claims.
