Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission describes a legitimate boutique law firm (Bitlaw) specializing in technology law in Chile, but the project entry itself contains significant inconsistencies and 'spam-like' data. The team size (125) is vastly exaggerated for a boutique firm founded in 2021, and the traction claim ('most people have used my product') is demonstrably false for a specialized B2B legal service. As a professional service business rather than a technology product, it lacks technical innovation in this context. The low score reflects the lack of verifiable software utility and the poor quality of the data provided.
