You're In Business

The project 'Ucarbon' presents a relevant concept (SMB sustainability accounting) but lacks verifiable evidence of existence or traction. The submission contains critical red flags, including the clearly false claim that 'most people have used my product' and a confusing revenue metric ('marketcap: 50000'). Searches for the domain 'ucarbon.com.au' yield no results, suggesting the product has no significant web presence or market penetration despite a claimed 2022 launch. The response quality is poor, failing to provide technical details or realistic audience data.
