Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Donube LLC (Donubeiot) is a verifiable entity selling smart home products (switches, regulators) in India with a registered US LLC. However, the submission is critically flawed by hyperbolic falsehoods (claiming 'most people have used my product' despite having negligible online presence, e.g., 31 YouTube views). While the products offer standard real-world utility, the lack of verifiable traction, generic technology, and low-quality submission data result in a score reflecting a small-scale local operation rather than the claimed 'industry leader' status.
