Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Nerdonic appears to be a legitimate but small UK-based electronics consultancy and maker of 'CheatKards' (engineering reference cards). However, the submission is heavily penalized for hyperbolic, unverifiable claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience is 'everyone') and poor data quality (listing 'marketcap' instead of revenue). While the technical services and reference cards have niche utility, there is no evidence to support the claimed massive reach or world-class scale. The web presence is also inconsistent, with search results showing unrelated retail items, suggesting a lack of focus or technical issues.
