Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project 'OmniSync' (associated with TurboSBIR) is a verified business in San Diego with over $2M in historical funding and clear utility for automating government grant applications (SBIR/STTR). However, the submission provided is of extremely low quality, containing false claims (e.g., reach: 'everyone', traction: 'most people have used my product') and nonsensical data. While external search confirms the existence of the technology and initial traction, recent employee reviews suggest significant financial or cultural instability (e.g., missed payroll). The score acknowledges the verified utility and funding but is heavily penalized for the misleading submission and signs of operational distress.
