Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Ciferon is a functional restaurant management and POS software based in India, operating since 2017 with a verifiable presence (approx. 3,500–9,000 claimed restaurant clients). However, the submission itself is of extremely poor quality, containing blatantly false claims (e.g., audience reach is 'everyone', traction is 'most people have used my product'). While the software has real-world utility and a regional user base, the lack of verifiable third-party evidence (few independent reviews, low web footprint) and the negligent submission significantly reduce the final score.
