Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

2Dsearch is a verifiable, functioning tool for information professionals that visualizes complex Boolean logic, solving a genuine problem in patent and academic research. However, the submission is significantly degraded by false claims ('everyone' reach, 'most people' traction) and vague data ('all time marketcap'). While the technology is innovative and useful for its specific niche, the project lacks the mass adoption claimed. The score reflects high utility and innovation, heavily penalized for delusional traction claims and poor response quality.
