Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

DataDisrupt addresses a relevant niche in financial services data, but the submission is severely undermined by nonsensical and exaggerated claims (e.g., citing 'everyone' as the target audience and claiming 'most people have used my product' for a B2B event). The lack of custom technology and highly unprofessional response quality result in heavily penalized scores, placing it far below calibrated benchmarks despite a claimed team size of 30.
