Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project appears to be a standard digital consultancy service based in Australia. However, the submission contains significant discrepancies and hyperbolic claims that severely undermine credibility. Specifically, the claim that 'most people have used my product' is factually impossible, and the financial metric labeled 'all time marketcap' of 2.5M relative to a 30-person team suggests either data error or inflated headcount (implies ~$20k revenue per employee over 4 years). The description relies on buzzwords rather than specific service details. While the business likely provides utility to a local client base, the submission quality and lack of verifiable evidence result in a low Proof of Usefulness score.
