Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission describes 'Housing Insight Ltd' (a legitimate UK-based B2B software provider) but uses the unrelated name 'SwiftShade' and contains demonstrable falsehoods (e.g., audience is 'everyone', traction is 'most people'). While the underlying company exists and has verified B2B clients (e.g., Regenda, Pobl Group), the submission quality is extremely poor, bearing signs of automation or negligence. The contradictory data and lack of verifiable evidence in the form significantly penalize the score despite the company's actual longevity.
