Proof of Usefulness Score

While the underlying company ReadyOn AI appears to be a legitimate VC-backed startup addressing frontline workforce management, this specific submission contains severe red flags. It features extremely low-effort responses, false and grossly exaggerated traction claims ('most people have used my product', reach is 'everyone'), and nonsensical revenue metrics ('all time marketcap: 500000'). These unsupported and unverifiable claims trigger significant penalties under the calibration guidelines, resulting in a negative score.
