Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Flash Networks Group Inc. appears to be a legitimate, long-standing (est. 1996) infrastructure and technology services firm based in Oklahoma. However, the project submission contains significant discrepancies and red flags, including a nonsensical revenue claim ('all time marketcap: 50000'), unsubstantiated audience reach ('everyone'), and exaggerated traction claims ('most people have used my product'). While the team size is listed as 125, external data suggests a smaller operational footprint or potential confusion with the Israeli firm 'Flash Networks Ltd' (acquired in 2020). The low-quality submission and contradictory data result in a low Proof of Usefulness score despite the likely real-world utility of the underlying service business.
