Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Caterham Computing is a legitimate, long-standing (est. 2002) local IT support and web design consultancy based in Surrey, UK. However, the submission contains highly exaggerated and unverifiable claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience reach of 'everyone'). While the business provides a useful local service, it lacks the global scale, technical innovation, or digital traction required for a high PoU score. The 'marketcap' figure likely refers to estimated business value or lifetime revenue rather than a public valuation.
