Eh. They don't sell anything of immediate utility. But they definitely sell fusion.
Think of it as a conspicuous luxury handbag for weird finance/tech bros. "Oh yeah? Well MY investments are going to save the world!!!"
So, indeed, so far they failed at energy, and they've only succeeded at fusion in the same way and at the same scale that university labs have.
So I guess you're right: they're not even any kind of company at the moment. They don't sell anything. They're an R&D lab.
