Tset is a verified Series A software company (raised €12.7M in July 2024) with over 100 employees and enterprise clients like BMW and ZF. While the submission form contained low-quality/inaccurate responses (e.g., claiming 'everyone' as the audience), external verification confirms it is a high-growth B2B SaaS platform for product cost and carbon footprint analysis. The project scores highly on utility, innovation, and verified traction, despite the penalties applied for the poor quality of the submitted evidence.
