Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project addresses a critical industry problem (AI hallucination) resulting in a strong market timing score. However, the submission provides highly exaggerated, unsupported claims ('most people have used my product') and lacks detail on technical implementation ('Internet'). These factors severely reduce the evidence of traction, audience reach, and response quality metrics.
