Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

While the stated mission of providing ethical genome editing consultancy holds theoretical real-world utility, the submission contains significant red flags. Claims such as 'most people have used my product' and targeting 'everyone' are entirely unrealistic for a highly specialized biotechnology firm. Additionally, providing 'all time marketcap: 500000' for monthly revenue indicates fabricated or nonsensical data. Due to these unverifiable contradictions and false claims of traction, the project is heavily penalized and receives a sub-zero score.
