Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The VR Superstore is a functional e-commerce website selling VR hardware and 3D printers, established around 2022. However, the project submission contains demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product') and lists irrelevant technologies ('space-technology'). While the platform exists and has a valid business model (likely dropshipping given the 7-14 day shipping times and lack of funding), there is no verifiable evidence of significant traction, proprietary innovation, or the massive reach claimed. The discrepancy between the submission's hyperbole and the reality of a small, unfunded niche retailer significantly impacts the score.
