Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission describes a 6-person IT and Agile consulting agency offering a highly disparate array of services (from AI and IoT to basic Scrum training). The claims of reach ('everyone') and traction ('most people have used my product') are severely exaggerated and lack verifiable evidence. While Agile training provides established utility and addresses relevant market needs, the lack of focus, absent custom technology, and unverified $2.5M 'marketcap' result in a low overall PoU score. Assigned quality multipliers reflect unsupported and vague statements.
