Proof of Usefulness Score

You're In Business

The project solves a clear real-world problem by making UK crime data accessible, but the submission contains extremely vague and exaggerated claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience reach of 'everyone'). Due to the lack of verifiable metrics, 'Internet' listed as the only technology, and generally low response quality, the traction, tech, and reach scores are penalized severely.
