Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The submission describes a standard boutique data science consulting practice. While the application of analytics and ML to real-world business verticals provides baseline utility, the submission is hindered by heavily exaggerated and unsubstantiated claims ('everyone' as the audience, 'most people have used my product' as evidence of traction). These red flags result in severe penalties for reach, traction, and response quality, placing it in the minimal traction category.
