Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

The project 'DeepGale' corresponds to 'Dual-Stream Ltd', a verified UK-based security and IoT integrator established in 2013. External verification confirms the company is a stable SME with ~£1.9M in net assets and a history of operations, justifying a 'Comparable Scale' score despite the extremely poor quality of the submission (which contained false claims like 'most people have used my product' and confusing revenue data). The score reflects the verifiable business reality (strong traction/utility) significantly outweighing the lack of effort in the form entry.
