Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The submission represents 'snap GmbH', a legitimate small German AI/BCI company (~20 employees), but contains significant inaccuracies and red flags. The claimed team size (350) and traction ('most people have used my product') are demonstrably false. The project name 'GoldenWing' conflicts with a Chinese competitor in the same BCI niche, suggesting possible confusion or an unverified internal project. While the underlying BCI technology is innovative and useful, the submission's low quality and exaggerated claims heavily impact the score.
