Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Propeller Health was a notable digital health company, but the project submission indicates it has 'ceased operations' and directs users to the parent company, ResMed. The submission itself contains low-quality, inaccurate data (claiming the audience is 'everyone' and that 'most people' have used the product), which contradicts the niche medical nature of the device. While the technology has historical significance, the current Proof of Usefulness is minimal due to the project's closure and the poor quality of the submission.
