What the numbers suggest

Insufficient evidence to score — single-signal gap. We don't grade what we can't verify; the two facts below are all we know.
23 rivals shipping (fact bar) how verified → market is crowded; differentiate on the unmet requirements above, don't compete on breadth.
1 builder post asking (fact bar) see post → too early to call it demand — watch, don't build yet.
