Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project represents a legitimate initiative by Technova Industries (founded 1989) to expand into AI-driven supply chain solutions (NovaGMS), verified by their participation in the Creative Destruction Lab (CDL) 2024/25 Risk Stream. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing obviously false claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') and inconsistent data. The score reflects the verifiable potential of the underlying business while heavily penalizing the lack of credible evidence and poor response quality.
