Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project addresses a high-demand market (bare metal HPC for AI), resulting in strong market timing and utility scores. However, the submission is severely lacking in credibility. Claims such as 'everyone' for audience reach and 'most people have used my product' are hyperbolic and unverifiable. Referencing an 'all time marketcap' of 2.5M instead of standard recurring revenue suggests a cryptocurrency token rather than an established enterprise B2B service. Due to these vague and potentially deceptive responses, the quality factor is heavily penalized across all metrics.
