Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

OLabs appears to be a legitimate niche UX research unit within the Onteractive agency in Vietnam, addressing a valid B2B market need. However, the project submission is extremely poor, containing red flags such as claiming the audience is 'everyone' and asserting 'most people have used my product' without any supporting metrics. These exaggerated claims, combined with zero verifiable traction data (revenue, user counts) and a lack of technical detail, result in a very low score. The project likely has local utility, but the Proof of Usefulness submission fails to demonstrate it credibly.
