Zeroshot addresses a critical and timely problem—AI system vulnerability testing—with a practical CLI approach. However, as a 'Day 1' launch, the project currently lacks verifiable traction, user base, or technical depth in the submission. The URL appears to be unindexed or very new, limiting the ability to assess the technical implementation. While the market timing is excellent given the rise of AI security concerns, the Proof of Usefulness is currently constrained by the absence of evidence and operational history.
