Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission contains highly exaggerated and unverifiable claims ('most people have used my product', 'everyone' as audience), resulting in a heavy penalty to the quality factor. The proposed solution describes a generic management consulting service rather than a scalable technological innovation. With no verifiable evidence of traction despite the 'marketcap' claim, the project scores in the minimal traction bracket.
