Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission highlights a legitimate freelance design portfolio with standard utility, but relies on heavily exaggerated and spam-like claims regarding audience reach ('everyone') and traction ('all time marketcap: 500000', 'most people have used my product'). Evidence of traction is completely unsubstantiated, severely penalizing the score and placing it in the minimal traction category.
