Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Aroa Cloud targets a legitimate and highly relevant market as an AWS Partner specializing in analytics and data modernization. However, the submission features severely exaggerated and unsupported claims (e.g., audience reach of 'everyone', traction claim that 'most people have used my product'). The lack of verifiable metrics and poor response quality trigger significant penalties, resulting in a low score despite strong market relevance.
