Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The project submission contains multiple red flags indicating a lack of legitimacy or extreme exaggeration. Despite claiming a team size of 125 and being a 'leading global marketplace,' there is zero verifiable digital footprint, professional reviews, or employee presence on platforms like LinkedIn. The traction claim that 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false. The revenue metric is confused ('marketcap' used for revenue). The generic technology description further suggests a lack of technical substance. The project fits the criteria for 'No verifiable traction or red flags,' resulting in a negative score.
