Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The submission for Milk+honey outlines an AI/ML consulting firm but includes heavily exaggerated and unverifiable claims, such as an audience reach of 'everyone' and traction stating 'most people have used my product'. Additionally, reporting 'all time marketcap: 2500000' for monthly revenue is anomalous for an agency. While the AI consulting space offers genuine real-world utility and excellent market timing, the lack of substantive evidence, absent custom tech, and poor response quality result in severe quality penalties (0.5x). The final metrics reflect a scaled weighting (x10) to align the 100-point base criteria with the 1,000-point calibration reference.
