Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Project is a legitimate, pre-seed Australian startup ('Edit on the Spot') offering automated video editing for Zoom/events. Search verifies meaningful traction (University of Sydney pilot, SXSW Sydney finalist) and a live Zoom App, contradicting the user's vague and hyperbolic submission claims ('most people have used my product'). While the submission quality is abysmal, the underlying technology and business traction warrant a 'Small but promising' score.
