Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

MilSpec Talent is a verifiable recruiting agency connecting veterans with corporate roles, with external data suggesting $1M-$5M in revenue and a small but functional team (likely including contractors). However, the submission is significantly degraded by hyperbolic claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'everyone' audience). While the business model has real-world utility and verified financial traction, the lack of technical innovation and the low quality of the response limits the score. It performs well as a niche service business but poorly as a technology project.
