Proof of Usefulness Score

The submission presents a standard software consulting agency with significant red flags in its claims. Assertions such as 'most people have used my product' and 'everyone' as the target audience for a B2B consultancy are highly exaggerated and unverifiable. The reported 'all time marketcap: 2500000' since 2015 does not logically align with sustaining a 30-person team, and the technical description relies heavily on generic buzzwords without citing proprietary custom tech. Consequently, it receives a low PoU score reflective of vague evidence and exaggerated traction signals.
