Codeminders

Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission follows a known spam/bot pattern using the placeholder name 'WhisperHunter' and generic, false traction claims ('most people have used my product') while pasting a description of a legitimate company (Codeminders). While Codeminders is a verifiable and reputable software consultancy (approx. 350 employees), the submission itself is invalid due to the use of a disposable email domain (hexahex.com), incorrect project naming, and conflicting metadata. The score reflects the existence of the underlying service but is heavily penalized for critical submission quality failures and lack of verifiable specific project data.
