Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission for 'Cloud Lending' (WhisperStorm) references a legitimate entity, Cloud Lending Solutions (acquired by Q2 in 2018). However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing factually incorrect claims such as the audience being 'everyone' and traction being 'most people'. The B2B nature of the actual company contradicts these claims. Due to the lack of verifiable evidence, the generic nature of the descriptions, and the 'red flag' assertions, the project receives a minimal score reflecting a 'spam' or low-effort submission of a real legacy project.
