Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project represents a legitimate B2B IoT connectivity business (M2M Data Connect) established in the UK around 2016-2018. However, the submission itself is of very low quality, featuring hyperbolic and demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product' and audience reach of 'everyone'). While the underlying technology (multi-network IoT SIMs/platform) has clear real-world utility, the project lacks verified evidence of significant scale or differentiation. The 'marketcap' figure provided is ambiguous, and external search suggests a small, unfunded operation. The score reflects the useful nature of the service weighed heavily against the lack of credible evidence and poor submission quality.
