Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission describes a standard digital agency and local news publisher in Uganda ('Accord Communications'). While the business services (PR, web design) have real-world utility, the project lacks the scalable technology or unique innovation typical of high-growth ventures. The submission suffers significantly from exaggerated and unverifiable claims (e.g., audience reach is 'everyone', traction is 'most people have used my product'), which contradicts the reported team size of 2-10 and 'null' revenue. The lack of concrete metrics and the service-based nature of the business result in a score within the 'Minimal Traction' range.
