Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project represents a legitimate Finnish B2B consultancy (5Feet Networks Oy) established in 2019, specializing in network security and automation. However, the submission quality is critically low, containing demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'audience reach: everyone', 'most people have used my product') that contradict the niche nature of enterprise consulting. While the verifiable revenue (~€500k implied) and team size (6) suggest a viable small business, the PoU score is heavily penalized by the disconnect between the actual business model and the exaggerated, low-effort submission data.
