WeCode is a verified, legitimate educational academy in Uruguay with strong local traction, including partnerships with government agencies (Ceibal, ANDE) and major corporations (TCS). However, the submission quality was exceptionally poor, featuring hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product', audience 'everyone') and unclear financial data ('17000000 marketcap' likely refers to UYU currency or cumulative figures). While the real-world utility of STEM education for children is high, the project's score is significantly penalized by the lack of credible evidence provided in the submission and its regional, service-based limitations compared to scalable global tech.
