The project submission contains severe contradictions and red flags. While 'starton.io' resolves to a legitimate blockchain infrastructure provider, the submission categorizes the business as 'Drug Delivery' and includes 'healthcare-tech' in technologies, which contradicts the project description. Additionally, the traction claim 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false and hyperbolic. The disconnect between the valid URL and the incoherent submission data heavily penalizes the score.
