Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The submission for 'ThunderStorm' by 8nodes Inc. contains significant red flags indicating a lack of credibility. The claim that 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false and hyperbolic for a niche tool. The revenue figure ('marketcap: 500000') uses terminology inconsistent with standard SaaS business models, suggesting either a crypto token or a fabrication. Search results yield no evidence of '8nodes.dev' or the 'ThunderStorm' automation tool existing as a viable product. The submission lacks technical detail, evidence of traction, or a realistic go-to-market strategy. Consequently, the project receives a negative score consistent with the 'Red Flags' calibration.
