Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Pineapple Builder is a verified, functional AI website builder with meaningful traction (50k+ claimed business users, active Product Hunt history), despite the submission's extremely poor quality. The submission contained hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and lacked data, heavily penalizing the Response Quality and Traction Quality scores. However, external validation confirms it is a viable 'Indie Hacker' product with real-world utility for small businesses, fitting the 'Small but promising' calibration tier.
