Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Akrim appears to be a legitimate, albeit niche, boutique advisory firm in Australia focusing on Circular Economy and IIoT, based on external verification of its domain and senior team profiles. However, the project submission is extremely low quality, containing demonstrably false claims (reach: 'everyone', traction: 'most people have used my product') and contradictory data (industry tags like 'Health & Wellness' do not match the description). The metric 'all time marketcap: 500000' is nonsensical for a consultancy and likely indicates very low revenue or a misunderstanding of terms. Due to the lack of verifiable client outcomes and the spam-like quality of the submission data, the score is minimal.
