Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The project submission contains significant red flags and verifiable inconsistencies. The domain 'chyps.org.uk' is historically associated with 'Children and Young People's Services' (UK charities), which contradicts the 'Industrial IoT' description provided. Claims of 'audience reach: everyone' and 'traction: most people have used my product' are demonstrably false and indicative of a hallucinated or spam submission. The email address follows a student/institutional format unrelated to a commercial tech startup. Due to these credibility issues and the lack of a verifiable product matching the description, the score is penalized to below zero.
