Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission presents an M&A advisory concept augmented with proprietary AI tools, which conceptually addresses a real market need. However, the application contains severe red flags: hyperbolic and demonstrably false claims ('most people have used my product'), an overly vague target audience ('everyone' for an investment banking product), nonsensical revenue metrics ('all time marketcap: 500000'), and an unverified bot-like contact. These factors indicate minimal verifiable traction and poor submission credibility, resulting in a very low PoU score.
