Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Stickel Innovation UG is a verifiable small German software agency founded in 2019 (Hamburg). However, the submission is of very low quality, featuring hyperbolic claims (e.g., audience is 'everyone', 'most people have used my product') that contradict the specialized B2B nature of the business. The claimed 'marketcap: 500000' likely refers to lifetime revenue or valuation (€500k), which indicates a functional but small-scale operation. The final score reflects the reality of a standard local agency penalized for unrealistic submission data.
