Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project appears to be a legitimate German software agency (formerly Stilgrenze GmbH, now likely rebranded to HEDGEHOG Software GmbH following an acquisition), but the submission is of extremely low quality. The input contains significant hyperbole (claiming 'most people have used my product' and 'everyone' as the audience) which contradicts the provided LinkedIn follower count (43) and verifiable market presence. The revenue/market cap figure provided is incoherent ('500000' without currency or clear definition) and likely inaccurate for a 30-person team in Germany. While the underlying business is real and operational, the submission fails to provide credible evidence of traction, innovation, or specific utility, resulting in a very low score.
