Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project represents a standard local IoT integration business offering weather stations, LoRaWAN solutions, and environmental sensors. While the described services have genuine real-world utility for agricultural and industrial sectors, the submission is critically undermined by hyperbolic and unverifiable claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience is 'everyone'). Technical analysis suggests the company is an integrator of open-source/off-the-shelf components rather than a developer of novel technology. Digital footprint analysis shows the company may be inactive or highly localized, with no significant online presence or verifiable traction to support the '500,000 marketcap' claim.
