Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project represents a legitimate and established educational institution (DHBW Mannheim), which provides significant real-world utility. However, the submission itself is of very low quality, containing hyperbolic and factually incorrect claims (e.g., audience reach 'everyone', traction 'most people', revenue 'marketcap'). The score reflects the underlying value of the institution heavily penalized by the lack of credible evidence, vague technical details, and poor response quality in the application.
