Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

FreshRooms is a verifiable operational business in India offering IoT-enabled 'smart' public sanitation and hospitality services (lounges, sleeping pods). External search confirms ~8 locations and seed funding of ~$415k (2018). However, the project submission itself was of very low quality, containing vague claims ('most people have used my product') and garbled financial metrics ('marketcap: 500000'). While the real-world utility is high and the business is legitimate, the score is constrained by its regional physical scale and the poor quality of the application data.
