Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Walkify targets a critical and growing market (aging in place), but the submission is severely lacking in verifiable evidence. Claims such as 'everyone' for audience and 'most people have used my product' for traction are wildly exaggerated and lack credibility. Without concrete data on active users or revenue, the score is heavily penalized despite the strong theoretical utility of the product.
