Proof of Usefulness Score

Gaining Momentum

The project demonstrates solid technical potential and institutional validation (NSF, LBNL) for its AI streaming technology. However, the submission severely exaggerates claims regarding traction ('most people have used my product') and audience reach ('everyone'). Additionally, the stated $2.5M market cap contradicts the claimed 30-person team size. Consequently, while technical innovation and market relevance score decently, the quality factor is heavily penalized for vague and unsupported metrics.
