Proof of Usefulness Score

You're In Business

EraseMe addresses a genuine and relevant problem in digital privacy and reputation management. However, the submission relies on severely exaggerated traction claims ('most people have used my product') and presents confusing financial metrics ('all time marketcap: 500000') for a small 6-person team launched in 2025. Technical implementation details are completely absent. Due to the lack of verifiable evidence and dubious claims, quality factor penalties were applied, resulting in a score reflective of a project with minimal proven traction.
