Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The submission contains severe red flags, including unsubstantiated and contradictory claims (e.g., asserting 'most people have used my product' while promoting a waitlist). The revenue metric is cited as a $500k all-time market cap, suggesting a micro-cap or defunct token project rather than an operational business with real revenue. The lack of verifiable traction, vague utility, and poor response quality result in a negative score.
