Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Burley Law Limited is a legitimate, verified law firm in Birmingham, UK, with a team of ~30 and estimated annual revenue of ~£2.5M (matching the '2500000' claim). However, the project submission is of very poor quality, containing false claims ('most people have used my product') and mislabeled data ('marketcap'). While the business has real-world utility and financial traction comparable to the calibration anchor, it lacks the technical innovation and scalability of a technology project. The score reflects strong business fundamentals severely penalized for lack of tech relevance, limited audience reach, and low-quality response.
