WitsWriter is an early-stage academic writing tool (SaaS) that utilizes a 'Bring Your Own Key' (BYOK) model for LLM integration. While the product exists and addresses a valid pain point (academic literature review), the submission is heavily penalized for demonstrably false traction claims ('most people have used my product') and vague audience definitions. Search results confirm it is a new, unfunded project (founded 2025) with minimal social footprint (~78 followers), contradicting the inflated usage claims. It is a functional wrapper around existing AI APIs with low technical novelty.
