Cause of death: the autopsy
The red team counted 20+ products that already grade French test speaking or writing with AI, at least 5 with a live voice examiner, and one (ConversaFlex) free with unlimited retries. freetcf, the $24.6k-a-month proof case, already sold AI scoring at $19.99 a month; what really sold was recalled real exam questions and community word of mouth, which the farm can't and shouldn't copy. Demand scored 9/10; channels 3/10; the idea 2/10.
The numbers
