Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The submission displays extreme red flags and lacks verifiable legitimacy. Reporting an 'all-time marketcap' instead of monthly revenue suggests a crypto/meme project rather than a real SaaS business. The claims are highly exaggerated and unsupported, such as stating 'everyone' is the audience, 'Internet' is the sole technology used, and 'most people have used my product' for a project launched in 2024. Due to zero evidence of actual utility, traction, or genuine technical innovation, the project falls into the lowest calibration tier and receives a negative score.
