The submission for Visobl (IronWing) contains critical red flags and unsubstantiated claims. While 'VISOBL LTD' is a registered UK entity (inc. Jan 2025), public records indicate it is under a 'Proposal to Strike off' status as of early 2026, suggesting inactivity or administrative failure. The claim that 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false for a micro-entity with no verifiable web traffic or market presence. The 'marketcap' figure likely refers to an unverified crypto token rather than business revenue. The technical description relies on buzzwords (Web3, AI, SSI) without providing evidence of a functional product.

Description
Visobl is a UK company formed to provide a new way for businesses to make informed decisions on acquisition, retention, eligibility and reward about people they have never met [yes that's right] without having to have CRM systems, consent data bases, GDPR audit capability etc. How do we do this? Technically, we use web3.0 techniques + AI & Open Banking and social Media data access. Specifically self sovereign identity, distributed identifiers, Ethereum utility token with AI techniques [named entity recognition and sentiment analysis] applied to data feeds from Open Banking and Social media [initially]. So what? It allows consumers [the data subjects] to prove things without revealing any personal information. This in turn delivers on the promise to a business that they are not the data controllers in respect to the Visobl sourced data and yet they can still communicate with [someone they do not know]. If this is difficult to envisage or seems impossible: why not use our calendar link and book a demonstration.
