Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Tietomyrsky Oy is a legitimate but tiny legacy electronics consultancy (est. 1990) with minimal recent revenue (~€5k/yr). The submission contains severe exaggerations regarding reach ('everyone'), traction ('most people'), and team size (30 vs actual ~1-2). The product technology (8051/AVR) is outdated, and the specific project 'StarHeart' appears to be nonexistent or obscure.
