Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

UroPharma is a legitimate MedTech entity (UroPharma Ltd) with patented 'dtb-instilla' technology addressing genuine clinical needs in bladder therapy. However, the submission is critically flawed, containing demonstrably false traction claims ('most people have used my product') and confusing financial data ('marketcap: 500000'). While the underlying technology and problem-solution fit are strong (high utility), the lack of verifiable commercial progress since the 2012 launch, combined with the unprofessional quality of the submission, severely suppresses the score. The project appears to be a stalled or early-stage R&D initiative rather than a scaling business.
