Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

The project 'ThunderStorm' is identified as VideoWise, a legitimate and successful eCommerce video platform for Shopify. While the submission data was extremely poor (containing false claims like 'most people have used my product' and name mismatches), external verification confirms strong B2B traction with over 240 5-star reviews on the Shopify App Store and documented revenue lift for clients. The score reflects high real-world utility and market timing, heavily penalized by the low quality and inaccuracy of the submission text.
