The submission appears to be a copy-pasted job advertisement for a 'Sales and Business Development Manager' at L4B Software, rather than a description of a technology project named 'SilentBlade' or 'The Intect'. The description is completely unrelated to the project name, and the URL provided does not host a relevant project. Additionally, the claim 'most people have used my product' is verifiable as false given the lack of visibility. The submission contains significant data inconsistencies (e.g., Business Type 'Cybersecurity' vs. embedded software job ad) and lacks any description of a functional product.
