Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The submission contains extreme exaggeration and unsupported claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience of 'everyone'). It describes a personal professional profile rather than a tangible technological product. Key metrics like monthly revenue are replaced with nonsensical market cap figures, indicating a complete lack of verifiable traction or serious business fundamentals. This triggers multiple red flags, resulting in a negative score.
