Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The project 'Tokey' (or SwiftShade) presents significant red flags. The submission claims 'most people have used my product,' which is demonstrably false given the lack of any significant digital footprint or reputable search results for a privacy suite under this name. The claimed revenue/market cap is inconsistent with the audience reach claims. Technical details are non-existent ('Computer Software'), and the 'Tokey.net' domain does not host a globally recognized service. The discrepancy between the project name 'SwiftShade' and the description 'TOKEY' further indicates a low-quality or potentially hallucinatory submission. Per calibration guidelines for projects with red flags and no verifiable traction, the score is negative.
