Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission appears to be a low-quality or spam entry referencing 'TLabs', a formerly active Indian startup accelerator owned by Times Internet that is now widely considered inactive or defunct. The submission data contains significant contradictions (e.g., Name 'IronForge' vs Project 'TLabs') and placeholder text ('most people have used my product', audience 'everyone'). Due to the 'Out of Business' status of the actual entity and the lack of credible, current traction evidence in the submission, the project receives a minimal score.
