Proof of Usefulness Score

Gaining Momentum

The submission for Dryden Technology Group presents a legitimate-sounding boutique IP litigation consulting firm, but the application is significantly undermined by implausible and exaggerated claims, such as 'most people have used my product' and an audience of 'everyone'. While the claimed team of 30 and '$2.5M marketcap' suggest a small-scale professional services operation, the lack of verifiable metrics and the extremely poor response quality result in heavily penalized scores across all traction and reach criteria.
