YouShd is a verifiable Seed-stage company backed by Accel with approximately $280K in annual revenue (based on external data). However, the project submission contained critical inaccuracies, such as claiming 'most people have used my product' and 'all time marketcap: null', which severely impacted the Evaluation Quality factors.
