Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Ocular Recruiting Solutions appears to be a legitimate, active staffing agency for the ophthalmology and optometry sectors, verified by recent external job postings and a functional website. However, the PoU submission itself is of very low quality, containing hyperbolic and factually incorrect claims (e.g., audience reach is 'everyone', traction is 'most people have used my product', and misuse of financial terms like 'marketcap'). While the business provides a useful real-world service, it lacks technical innovation and the submission fails to provide credible evidence of the claimed scale (125 team members, $17M value). The score reflects a standard non-tech service business with verified operations but poor data reporting.
