Lab Mode

The submission for 'Up Change' contains significant red flags indicating a low-quality or spam entry. Despite claiming to be a 30-person consultancy operating since 2019, the domain 'upchange.co.uk' has no discernable search footprint or indexed content. The traction claim 'most people have used my product' is verifiably false for a niche consultancy. The 'marketcap' metric is misused, and the submitter name 'WhisperForge' appears unrelated to the business description. The project lacks verifiable utility, innovation, or reach.
