That's pretty much how all concept demos work at start. At some point they might actually do the thing, but need a lot of careful setup and pushing along. Later on, they start to work for some cases, then more cases and hopefully before they go in the field there's certainty and fault handling that they more or less work.

How honest the marketing is about this process and their market research varies. But investors generally know how the sausage is made, too.
