Proof of Usefulness Report

PoundSquare Ltd.

Analysis completed on 2/18/2026

+19
Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission describes 'PoundSquare Ltd,' a standard professional services agency offering accounting, marketing, and HR consulting, rather than a scalable technology product. The entry suffers significantly from hyperbolic and unverifiable claims, stating that 'most people have used my product' despite being a 6-person team launched in 2023. Technical innovation is negligible as 'Management Consulting' is listed as the primary technology. While the underlying service business may be legitimate, the submission lacks the evidence, technical depth, and realistic metrics required for a high Proof of Usefulness score in a technology context.
