Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Music City Creative is a verified, award-winning screen printing business in Nashville with significant social media virality (TikTok) and a clear social mission. However, the submission quality is critically poor, containing copy-paste errors (Project Name 'DeepHunter'), false claims ('most people have used my product'), and irrelevant tags ('investing'). While the business itself has high real-world utility and verified local/viral traction, the project's technical innovation is minimal (standard e-commerce/service), and the submission data degrades the score significantly.
