Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission contains critically low-quality and objectively false data (e.g., claiming 'most people have used my product' for a niche medical tool). While 'DocTalk' was previously a YC-backed startup, it ceased operations in 2018/2019, and this submission provides no verifiable evidence of a pivot or active product named 'MedAffairs Xchange'. The 'everyone' audience target further indicates a lack of serious business planning or a spam submission.
