Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project appears to be a legitimate but small-scale HR consultancy (Profecon) hampered by a very low-quality submission. Major red flags include hyperbolic claims of audience reach ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') which contradict the niche B2B nature of the business. While the described services (HR consulting, online assessments) have inherent utility, the lack of verifiable evidence, the vague financial metric ('marketcap 500000'), and the unprofessional response quality severely depress the score. The project falls into the 'Minimal traction or red flags' category relative to the calibration benchmark.
