Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

GDI Innovations Limited appears to be a legitimate, small-scale consulting and business development firm based in Abuja, Nigeria, rather than a high-growth technology startup. While the website verifies the existence of services like 'Pulser' and claims regarding architectural patents, the project submission itself contains significant red flags, including hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product', 'audience reach: everyone') and unclear financial metrics ('marketcap: 500000'). The primary offering is service-based (consulting/training) with some digital tooling, limiting its scalability compared to pure-play tech products. The low score reflects the minimal verifiable digital traction, the localized nature of the business, and the poor quality of the submission data.
