You're In Business

Struction identifies a legitimate real-world problem and proposes a technically sound ML/CV solution for construction takeoff and quoting. However, the submission is severely compromised by hyperbolic, unsubstantiated claims ('most people have used my product', 'all time marketcap: 500000') and highly vague audience definitions ('everyone'). True verifiable traction is virtually non-existent based on the provided data, resulting in a low overall PoU score.
