Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The submission contains significant red flags, relying heavily on vague and hyperbolic claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience reach is 'everyone') with no verifiable evidence. As SVX.dev is a talent acquisition service rather than a novel software product, it lacks technical innovation. Due to the completely unsubstantiated claims and zero verifiable traction, the project receives a sub-zero score.
