Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Space Copy is a verified early-stage aerospace startup focused on lunar ISRU (In-Situ Resource Utilization) and 3D printing, with a legitimate founder and some industry recognition (NASA panels, media coverage). However, the project submission contains heavily exaggerated and factually incorrect claims, such as 'most people have used my product' and an audience of 'everyone'. While the technical concept is innovative and timely for the Artemis generation, the lack of verifiable commercial traction (active customers, revenue) and the poor quality of the submission data severely impact the score.
