Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

VecSpec (Vector Spectrum) appears to be a standard IT consulting and staffing firm based in India (indicated by area code 0481 in search results), rather than a high-growth product startup. The submission contains significant red flags, including the clearly false claim that 'most people have used my product' and describing the audience as 'everyone'—traits of a B2B service provider, not a mass-market consumer app. The 'market cap' figure of 2,500,000 is likely a mislabeled total revenue figure (possibly in INR, which would be ~$30k USD, or if USD, implies modest annual revenue for a 30-person team). While the business appears to exist, the lack of verifiable digital traction, generic service offering, and low-quality submission data significantly lower the score.
