Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

NNext is a verified early-stage startup (Techstars Class of 2022) offering vector search and LLM observability tools. While the project addresses a high-utility market (AI infrastructure), the submission contains significant inaccuracies, such as claiming 'most people have used my product' and contradicting the business type (Image Recognition vs. LLM Observability). Real-world traction is present (Techstars backing, PyPI packages) but niche, far below the claimed 'everyone' reach. The score reflects a valid seed-stage technology heavily penalized for a low-quality, exaggerated submission.
