Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project 'Boum' presents as an urban gardening solution but lacks verifiable details, concrete metrics, or evidence of the claimed 'everyone' audience reach. The submission relies on hyperbole ('most people have used my product') without supporting data, resulting in a low credibility score. While the sector (Crop Tech) is relevant, the vague description and absence of traction indicators place this in the minimal traction category.
