Proof of Usefulness Score

Lab Mode

The submission contains major red flags and verifiable contradictions, leading to a negative score. Claiming an audience of 'everyone' and stating 'most people have used my product' for a niche B2B VC due diligence API is highly unrealistic. Furthermore, the listed technologies (Hospital & Health Care) do not align with the product description, and using a crypto-style 'marketcap: 500000' as monthly revenue indicates a lack of fundamental business understanding or fake data.
