Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission for Carbon Edge lacks credibility due to unverifiable and exaggerated claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product'). No active digital footprint was found for the domain. The project description (web design) contradicts the 'climatetech' tag, and the input data contains errors ('marketcap: null'). The score reflects a standard service business with no evidence of execution or traction.
