Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Ergson GmbH appears to be a legitimate established German manufacturing firm (est. 1999) specializing in industrial measurement and embedded systems. However, the project submission is of extremely low quality, featuring hyperbolic claims (e.g., audience is 'everyone', 'most people have used my product') and confusing financial metrics ('all time marketcap: 2500000'). While the 30-person team size and domain domain indicate real-world utility, the lack of verifiable evidence and the unprofessional nature of the response significantly penalize the Proof of Usefulness score, placing it in the range of projects with minimal validated traction.
