Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission represents a legitimate educational institution (Guildford School of Acting) but fails completely as a technology project submission. The input data contains objectively false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product') and nonsensical financial metrics ('all time marketcap: 50000'). There is no technical innovation or software component described, and the audience reach claims are exaggerated. The submission is evaluated as low-effort or irrelevant to the technology focus of the methodology.
