Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project represents a legitimate engineering spin-off (Poema S.r.l.) from the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF), indicating strong technical utility in niche sectors like Metrology and IoT. However, the submission quality is critically low, featuring hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product', audience is 'everyone') that contradict the specialized B2B nature of the business. While the longevity (est. 2007) suggests stability, the lack of verifiable traction data and the low-effort response heavily penalize the final score.
