Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission describes a standard SEO agency ('Growing Search') but suffers significantly from low-credibility claims in the application data. The statement that 'most people have used my product' is factually incorrect for a niche B2B agency, and the audience reach of 'everyone' is unrealistic. While the service itself (SEO) has utility, the lack of verifiable metrics, the absence of technical differentiation, and the poor quality of the response (e.g., 'all time marketcap: 500000') result in a very low score. This falls into the 'Minimal traction or red flags' category.
