Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission describes an investment firm rather than a technology product. While the entity 'Valiance Asset Management' appears to exist, the submission contains significant red flags and low-quality data. The claim that 'most people have used my product' is factually incorrect for a specialized B2B asset management firm. The audience reach is listed as 'everyone', which is unrealistic. Additionally, no specific technology stack is provided ('Investment Management' is a sector, not a technology). The mismatch between the claimed team size (125) and the 'market cap' (17M) suggests data inconsistency. The PoU score is heavily penalized for lack of verifiable traction, unrealistic claims, and low response quality.
