Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission presents significant red flags and contradictions. The provided URL (ploy.com.au) belongs to an established Australian IT workforce and staffing agency, not a game or consumer app studio as described. The claim that the project creates 'games and consumer apps' contradicts the verifiable business operations of the URL owner. Furthermore, the traction claim ('most people have used my product') is demonstrably false and hyperbolic. The revenue figure is ambiguously labeled as 'marketcap' without currency or context, and the project name 'WhisperHeart' appears unrelated to the URL entity. The submission likely misrepresents an existing business or is entirely invalid.
