Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Sequencing.com is a legitimate, established player in the consumer genomics market with high utility and a unique 'App Store' business model. However, the specific submission provided was low quality, utilizing hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and lacking concrete metrics. The score reflects the high intrinsic value of the project (Real-World Utility and Innovation) heavily penalized by low Quality Factors in Reach and Traction due to the poor submission data.
