Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project represents a legitimate but niche IoT consultancy (Becker IoT) based in Germany, offering connectivity solutions. However, the submission is critically flawed with demonstrable falsehoods (claiming 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people' as users), unrelated project naming ('FrostGale'), and financial illiteracy ('marketcap' used for a private consultancy). These red flags, combined with a lack of verifiable product details, result in a very low score despite the underlying business's existence.
