Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Bowery Media Inc. is a verifiable boutique film distribution agency based in New York, with confirmed projects like 'Where's Rose' and 'Draupadi Unleashed'. However, the submission provided extremely low-quality data (claiming 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people' as users), which significantly penalized the score. While the business is legitimate and operational, the claimed metrics are hyperbolic and the 'marketcap' figure appears confused or inaccurate. The project falls into the 'Small but promising' category due to verified existence but lack of scalable tech traction.
