Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission contains vague and highly exaggerated claims ('most people have used my product', audience is 'everyone'). For an entity claiming a 125-person team and a 2017 launch, the lack of specific, verifiable metrics or a well-defined business model places it in the lowest scoring tier due to lack of verifiable evidence and dubious traction.
