Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The submission contains major red flags. The creator claims 'most people have used my product' while simultaneously stating they are building prototypes. Financial metrics are nonsensical ('all time marketcap: 2500000' for a prototype). Audience reach is listed delusionally as 'everyone'. Due to the lack of verifiable traction, extreme exaggeration, and contradictory claims, the project receives a negative score.
