Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

TinyROM appears to be a legitimate boutique embedded systems consultancy based on external verification, contradicting the low-quality data provided in the submission. The input claims of 'marketcap' for revenue and 'most people' for audience reach are demonstrably false and damage credibility. While the underlying service (embedded engineering) has real-world utility, the project is scored as a nascent or niche business with poor self-reporting.
