Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project represents a verifiable retail franchise (Sloan's Ice Cream) operating in Saudi Arabia under the reputable Alesayi Group. While the business has established market presence and corporate backing, the submission describes a traditional brick-and-mortar retail operation with no discernible software or technology component ('Retail' and 'Real Estate' listed as technologies). The claim of 'everyone' as the audience is hyperbolic, and traction metrics are vague ('most people'). The score reflects a viable regional business (250–300 range) but is penalized heavily for lack of technical innovation and submission quality in a technology evaluation context.
