Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Lukango is a legitimate, verified Insurtech startup (Pre-seed funding ~£275k) serving micro-businesses in the UK. However, the submission itself is of very poor quality, containing significant hyperbole ('most people have used my product'), incorrect revenue data ('marketcap' in revenue field), and typos. While the underlying business has real-world utility and verified backing (e.g., investors from Bupa/Admiral), the user's delusional traction claims and lack of effort result in heavy penalties to the Traction, Reach, and Response scores. The project fits the 'Small but promising' category, but the submission quality drags the score to the lower end.
