Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission contains multiple red flags and contradictory information, including heavily exaggerated claims ('audience reach: everyone', 'most people have used my product'), a severely inflated team size (125) relative to the stated $500,000 all-time market cap, and minimal technical specifics. Verifiable real-world traction is absent, resulting in a low score reflecting a highly speculative or unserious project.
