Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission contains highly exaggerated and unsupported claims (e.g., audience reach is 'everyone', traction is 'most people have used my product'). While the company operates in a relevant market (AI/ML consultancy), the extremely poor quality of the application, vague metrics, and lack of verifiable specific product data result in a very low Proof of Usefulness score.
