Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Intrigue Enterprises claims to be an emerging tech consultancy established in 1996. The submission contains multiple red flags, including unsupported and highly exaggerated claims ('most people have used my product', 'audience reach: everyone') and confused metrics ('all time marketcap: 2500000' reported as monthly revenue). Due to the lack of verifiable traction, reliance on generic technology buzzwords without verifiable custom IP, and extremely vague evidence, the project evaluates poorly. The quality multiplier is strictly reduced to 0.5 across all criteria to reflect the unsupported and exaggerated nature of the submission.
