Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission represents a data science consulting service but provides vague, unsubstantiated, and highly exaggerated claims (e.g., claiming an audience reach of 'everyone' and traction stating 'most people have used my product'). Technical details are minimal, and the revenue metric ('all time marketcap: 50000') is confusing for a consulting business. As a result, the project receives the lowest quality multipliers due to lack of verifiable evidence, leading to a minimal score.
