Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Dragoneye presents an ambitious computer vision platform claiming 13k classes out of the box, demonstrating solid market timing and technical potential. However, the submission is weighed down by heavily hyperbolic and unsupported claims (e.g., stating the audience is 'everyone' and traction is 'most people have used my product'). While the core premise is innovative, the lack of realistic, verifiable metrics and poor response quality severely limit the final Proof of Usefulness score.
