Score Rationale
Perseus benefits from YC affiliation and operates in a hot DoD priority area (autonomous systems), yielding a 4 on market timing. However, the company lacks named founders, disclosed funding, published technical work, or customer validation—typical red flags at seed stage. The 'Golden Dome for Drones' tagline suggests autonomy/decision software, but without team credentials or shipping evidence, novelty and capital efficiency remain unproven.
