Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The project appears to be non-existent or a test submission. The domain 'trustsandcastle.com' yields no search results or active website. The claim that 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false given the lack of any digital footprint. The submission contains typos ('Sandcastleis') and lacks all critical data points (team, revenue, launch date). The project is assessed as having no verifiable traction or utility, with a penalty applied for misleading claims.
