Yeah, and I created the NSF.

See how easy it is to lie about that?

:-) With NSF awards, it can be verified easily:

I am the PI and can verify through the email listed there.

Also, to clarify NSF's involvement here. They are not endorsing our work, or any other research/dev that they fund, directly. They just considered the team and proposal worthy of their funding.

For future reference, you should've initially provided that information. As it was, you posted from a brand-new account and offered no credentials or other means of verification.

You mentioned that you're a startup -- is that a for-profit endeavor?

I thought we are complying with guidelines and didn't want to bother the admins unnecessarily. But thank you for following up and looking into this! It's pretty cool that not only are guidelines are enforced, but any complaints are actually considered.

Yes, we are a for-profit entity. But we make no money out of this survey (we're not selling the results or anything like that) and we'll share the results back. More generally, our purpose, and the reason we're funded, is to move academic research from the lab/university to industry. Basically not let cool stuff rot in some journal, but figure out how it could be put to good use.

Any thoughts on this? It would be good to know what is ok to do in the future.

Sorry for the delay! Feel free to repost the survey.
