Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Hygenica is a verifiable UK-based MedTech company (trading name for Disposable Cubicle Curtains Ltd) with established NHS contracts and verified antimicrobial technology (Fantex), which has associated awards (Queen's Award for Enterprise via All in One Medical). The project demonstrates high real-world utility in infection control. However, the submission quality is exceptionally poor, containing false hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product'), incorrect terminology ('marketcap' for revenue), and an unprofessional submitter handle ('ShadowForge'). The score reflects the strong underlying business fundamentals and medical utility, heavily penalized for the low-quality, inaccurate submission data.
