Proof of Usefulness Report

Dapta Ltd

Analysis completed on 2/3/2026

+38
Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission identifies 'Dapta Ltd' (dapta.com), a UK-based niche engineering simulation platform, but contains significant data inconsistencies and false claims. The 'Business Type' provided describes a different US-based company (dapta.ai), and the traction claim ('most people have used my product') is demonstrably false for a 1-person niche B2B startup. While the actual project at the URL appears to be a legitimate early-stage tool for aerospace/engineering simulation, the submission's poor quality, lack of evidence, and exaggerated reach severely penalize the score.
