Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Kwil is a legitimate, VC-backed ($11M) decentralized SQL database protocol, but this submission is of extremely low quality and contains false claims. While external verification confirms the project's technical innovation and funding, the submission claims 'most people have used my product' and 'everyone' as the audience, which are demonstrably false for a niche Web3 infrastructure tool in Alpha. The score reflects the reality of a pre-revenue, early-stage project with minimal active users (<50K), severely penalized by the lack of effort and honesty in the submission.
