The project 'QuickInfra' (submitted as 'IronForge') represents a functional DevOps automation platform with verifiable existence via YouTube demos and a live website. However, the submission is critically undermined by unrealistic claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone') and a lack of verifiable traction data. The revenue metric ('marketcap: 2500000') is ambiguous (likely INR or valuation, not revenue) and unsupported by third-party signals like G2 or Capterra reviews. While the tool addresses a genuine problem (Cloud/DevOps complexity), the submission fails to provide credible evidence of adoption, resulting in a low Proof of Usefulness score.
