Cause of death: the autopsy

Paid 'humanizers' are a crowded market with many free ones, its main buyers want to slip past AI detectors (academic misuse), and the 4-billion-parameter rewriter it would run on writes flat. The radar scored it 13 of 25.

The numbers

None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.

Could rise again if

The report left no way back.
