The submission raises multiple red flags due to highly dubious and unsupported claims, such as stating 'most people have used my product' for traction and providing an irrelevant 'marketcap' metric for monthly revenue. Although the core concept of an Indoor Positioning Solution using Wi-Fi and ML holds potential utility, the complete lack of verifiable evidence, vague audience descriptions, and poor overall response quality result in a heavily penalized score below zero.
