Score Rationale
Cognition IP is a general IP counsel platform with YC validation but zero evidence of defense sector focus, DoD contracting, or named founders with relevant expertise. The core offering (flat-fee patent/trademark services) is a crowded legal-tech space with no clear differentiation for defense applications, and there is no visible defense market pull or government validation signal.
