Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Market Boost is a 6-person management consultancy for AI startups. While the market timing is highly relevant and consulting provides real-world utility, the submission is severely penalized for exaggerated, unsupported claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product' and an audience reach of 'everyone'). The final score reflects a standard service-based business with zero custom technical innovation and minimal verifiable scale.
