Gaining Momentum

Project 'Suppli' is a verified, VC-backed fintech company (raised $3.1M Seed in 2023) solving a genuine problem in construction material payments. However, the submission itself is of extremely poor quality, containing objectively false claims (Audience: 'everyone', Traction: 'most people have used my product') and lazy data entry. The score reflects the high real-world utility and verified backing of the business, but is significantly penalized for the unreliable and unprofessional submission.
