Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Alec Consulting AB is a verified micro-consultancy (team of ~6) in Umeå, Sweden, specializing in embedded systems. While the business is legitimate, the submission contains hyperbolic and unverifiable claims (e.g., 'audience: everyone', 'most people have used my product') that contradict its scale. The 'GoldenSpirit' name appears to be a user handle or placeholder rather than a widely recognized product. With 'all time marketcap: 500000' (currency unspecified, likely SEK) indicating minimal financial scale, and a lack of specific evidence for its global reach claims, the project scores in the 'Minimal Traction' tier.
