Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project '99w' is a legitimate UK-based WooCommerce agency whose plugin portfolio (including 'Rental Products') was acquired by Kestrel in January 2025. While the submission quality is extremely poor (containing hyperbolic claims like 'everyone' and 'most people'), external verification confirms a successful exit and a history of serving thousands of businesses. The score reflects the verified commercial utility and successful exit, heavily penalized by the low-quality, inaccurate submission data.
