You're In Business

The submission contains significant red flags, including hyperbolic and demonstrably false claims regarding traction ('most people have used my product') and audience reach ('everyone'). The project description relies on generic industry buzzwords (IoT, Blockchain, AI/ML) without specific evidence of implementation or portfolio. There is inconsistency between the project name ('TechGarrage') and the name field ('ShadowHeart'). Financial metrics confuse revenue with 'marketcap', and the figure ($500k) is low for a service business established in 2016. The submission lacks verifiable utility or credible evidence of operations.
