Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

LetAFlat is a verifiable early-stage startup focused on the Ukrainian/Polish rental market, backed by the 'Seeds of Bravery' grant cohort. While the platform exists and addresses a genuine need (direct rentals), the submission is plagued by exaggerated claims ('most people have used my product', 'everyone') and confused metrics ('marketcap' vs revenue). The score reflects a promising regional utility and grant validation, heavily penalized for lack of verifiable user traction and poor data reliability.
