Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The project represents a legitimate logistics SME in Senegal ('Teranga Logistics Services' or TLS), operating in the high-growth Oil & Gas and mining sectors. External verification confirms the company exists, has ~30 employees, and strategic partnerships (e.g., Africa Global Logistics). However, the submission quality is critically low: it contains a copy-paste error in the name field ('LunarKeeper'), an incorrect URL (real site is teranga-ls.com), and demonstrably false traction claims ('most people have used my product'). While the business itself has high regional utility and good market timing, the PoU score is heavily penalized by the lack of verifiable data provided and the incoherent submission details.
