Proof of Usefulness Score

You're In Business

The submission describes a management consulting and storytelling service rather than a scalable technology product. Claims regarding audience reach ('everyone') and traction ('most people have used my product') are highly exaggerated and unsupported. Due to the lack of verifiable technical innovation and vague responses, the project receives a low score consistent with minimal traction.
