Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Vocalini addresses a genuine accessibility need with Text-to-Speech technology, but the submission is severely undermined by unsupported and highly exaggerated claims ('most people have used my product'). The absence of verifiable technical details, realistic active user metrics, and generic responses result in a low overall usefulness score.
