Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The submission for 'Abord' lacks verifiable evidence and contains significant red flags. The claim that 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false given the absence of an indexed web presence or documented user base. Key metrics such as revenue, team size, and launch date are missing or invalid. The project appears to be a placeholder or concept with no proof of execution or traction, warranting a score below zero consistent with the calibration guidelines for submissions with red flags.
