Thank you @Ezequiel. I gave another pass at the beta platform— looks good!

How does this update that you provided track with the Milestone deliverables? Is this update still related to Milestone 1?

Hi @Axia, thanks for the kind words about our product!

As shared in the previous update, Milestone 1 deliverables are completed and fully verifiable on the platform. This latest update is still aligned with that scope, but also reflects ongoing improvements we’re making beyond the original milestone.

We’re iterating daily — fixing bugs, refining UX, and shipping small but meaningful features that enhance the platform. We wanted to proactively share this progress with the community as we keep building.

We’ll keep rolling out updates and make sure to answer all community questions along the way.

Thanks.
Ezequiel

Thanks for the update, @Ezequiel.

We are still waiting for the dashboard for verifiable data so that we can review them.
