Their form rejections either have “interesting” or “exciting” premise or similar. They recycle those words, but they are standard form rejections.

Firstly, thank you so much for taking the time to send us [Title] – we really appreciate your interest.

We're very aware of the hard work and effort that has gone into your submission and think you have an interesting premise. However, after careful consideration, we don't feel that [Title] is quite right for us at Bookouture.

Unfortunately, due to the number of submissions we receive and the size of our team we are unable to give more detailed feedback. Whilst we're not able to accept re-submissions for manuscripts that we've already viewed, please do keep us in mind for any future manuscripts.

Once again, our genuine thanks for your submission. We wish you the very best for your future success.

7/29/2024 Rejected through email (unclear if customized or form letter).
Either way, at least they don't leave the writer hanging. I call that conscientious in this swamped industry.
