Virtual Waves is a legitimate, niche embedded systems consultancy based in France (founded 2017) specializing in high-complexity FPGA and SoC design. However, the PoU submission is extremely low quality, featuring hyperbolic claims (reach: 'everyone', traction: 'most people have used my product') and confusing financial metrics ('all time marketcap: 500000'). While the technical expertise is verifiable and valuable, the lack of specific evidence, poor audience definition, and ambiguous revenue data significantly reduce the score. The project is a stable small service business rather than a high-growth product.
