Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The Aileron Group (aileron.ai) appears to be a legitimate boutique consultancy specializing in healthtech compliance (HIPAA, 21 CFR Part 11) and software validation. However, the project submission suffers from significant quality issues and red flags. The claims regarding audience reach ('everyone') and traction ('most people have used my product') are demonstrably false for a niche B2B service. The reported revenue metric ('all time marketcap: 500000') is non-standard and suggests either low lifetime revenue or a misunderstanding of financial terms, especially given the claimed team size of 30. While the core service offers real-world utility to a specific sector, the lack of verifiable traction evidence and the poor quality of the submission heavily penalize the score.
