Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Producter is a legitimate SaaS platform for product management (roadmap, feedback, changelog) launched in 2022, with verified traction including a #2 Product Hunt launch and approximately 2,000 users. However, the submission quality is critically low, containing demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience reach 'everyone') and nonsensical data (e.g., business type 'Content creation'). While the software itself has utility and a modern interface comparable to Linear or Productboard, the project demonstrates minimal market penetration (<5k users) in a highly saturated sector. The score reflects the reality of a functional but early-stage tool, heavily penalized for a lack of credible evidence and a poor-quality submission.
