Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project represents a verified UK-based recruitment agency ('Finda') operational since 2016, rather than a scalable technology product. The submission is heavily penalized for demonstrable inaccuracies, including the claim that 'most people have used' the product and an audience reach of 'everyone', which contradicts the regional nature of the business. The 'cutting edge technology' appears to be a standard web application developed by a third-party digital agency (Shift Digital). While the business has longevity, the input data provides no verifiable evidence of the claimed 'marketcap' or the 125-person team size (likely conflating internal staff with temporary placements). The low score reflects the disparity between the hyperbolic submission and the reality of a standard service-based SME.
