Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The submission contains multiple severe red flags, including absurd and unsubstantiated claims ('most people have used my product'), extremely vague technical specifications ('Internet' as the only technology used), and contradictory financial metrics (an all-time market cap of 50,000 for a 30-person team launched in 2017). This heavily indicates a spam, joke, or purely theoretical submission with zero verifiable real-world traction, resulting in a sub-zero calibration score.
