Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Metaspectral is a legitimate deep-tech company with high-potential technology in hyperspectral imaging and AI, verified through external context (Seed funding, CSA contracts). However, the specific submission provided was low-quality, containing exaggerated claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') that contradict the specialized B2B nature of the product. The score reflects strong technical innovation and real-world utility, heavily penalized by the lack of verifiable data in the submission and the false claims regarding audience reach.
