Gaining Momentum

U-Care Medical is a verifiable Italian MedTech startup with a CE-marked AI platform for Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) prevention in ICUs. While the project demonstrates high real-world utility and technical innovation (AI/MDR certification), the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'audienceReach: everyone', 'most people have used my product') and professional negligence. The score reflects the high potential of the verifiable technology, heavily penalized for the lack of credible evidence in the submission and early-stage commercial traction compared to the 'everyone' claim.
