Soulside is a verified AI behavioral health startup backed by PeakXV Partners (Spark Cohort 03) and a Top 10 semi-finalist in the Confluent Data Streaming Challenge. While the project demonstrates high real-world utility and technical innovation (real-time transcript processing), the submission itself contains significant exaggerations (claiming 'most people have used' the product and 'everyone' as the audience) and data errors (Project Name 'GoldenKeeper', unlikely market cap figure). The score reflects the strong institutional backing and market timing, heavily penalized for the false user traction claims and poor response quality.
