Proof of Usefulness Score

The submission for 'Guild' at 'guild.host' presents significant red flags. The claimed metrics (Team 1000+, $4.4B valuation) appear to be misappropriated from the well-known unicorn 'Guild Education' (which operates at guild.com), while the provided URL 'guild.host' is unindexed and likely inactive. Additionally, the traction claim 'most people have used my product' is hyperbolic and unsubstantiated. Due to the high probability of impersonation or data fabrication and lack of verifiable digital footprint for the submitted domain, the project receives a minimal score.
