Gaining Momentum

Vantage Point is a verified, venture-backed company (raising ~$4M+) offering VR-based sexual harassment and DEI training with legitimate Fortune 500 clients. However, the project submission itself provided extremely poor quality data (claiming 'most people have used my product' and 'everyone' as the audience), which severely impacted the Traction and Response Quality scores. The evaluation relies heavily on external verification of the company's actual market position, which is strong but niche (B2B enterprise), rather than the exaggerated claims in the input.
