Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission for 'Rfsat Limited' (submitted under the likely spam name 'MysticForge') presents a dichotomy between a legitimate research entity and a low-quality, automated submission. RFSAT is a verifiable research-performing SME in Ireland and Greece, involved in high-value EU funding programs (FP7, Horizon 2020) regarding deep tech (VLSI, drones, cyber resilience). However, the submission metadata contains hallmark spam indicators: the project name 'MysticForge' (a gaming reference unrelated to the company), false traction claims ('most people have used my product'), and nonsensical financial data ('marketcap: 50000'). While the underlying company has valid utility and technical expertise, the Proof of Usefulness score is heavily penalized by the lack of specific product focus, the small verifiable scale (Team of 6), and the fabrication of reach/traction data in the entry form.
