Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

AWOP (AWOP Solutions) is a legitimate New Zealand-based provider of RFID cashless payment systems for festivals (e.g., Northern Bass). However, the submission quality is extremely poor, featuring a likely pseudonym ('ThunderBlade'), hyperbolic claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product'), and confusing financial metrics ('marketcap' likely referring to revenue or valuation). While the business has verifiable real-world utility and B2B traction, the submission fails to accurately represent its scale or reach, resulting in a low score despite the functional technology.
