+5
Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission for 'Cookbook' lacks verifiable evidence and credibility. The provided domain (cookbookofficial.com) appears unindexed or inactive. The claim that 'most people have used my product' is objectively false or hyperbolic without supporting data. The listed 'marketcap' of 2.5M suggests a potential crypto/token angle, but this is unsubstantiated. The technology section lists 'Food & Beverages' rather than actual tech stacks, indicating a low-quality response. Due to the lack of a working product link and the exaggerated claims, the score is minimal.
