Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission contains critical inconsistencies, describing the project as a 'Student Union App' while listing the business type as a 'virtual care platform'. The traction claim ('most people have used my product') is demonstrably false and hyperbolic for an unverified project. With no active user data, revenue, or team details, and a generic technical description, the project shows no verifiable proof of usefulness or market viability.
