Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

WIO Consulting AB is a verifiable but niche B2B consultancy based in Sweden, specializing in telematics and M2M wireless technology. While the business is legitimate (founded 2008), the submission contains significant exaggerations and inaccuracies. External data indicates a team size of ~3 rather than the claimed 30, and the claim that 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false for a specialized consulting firm. The reported 'market cap' of 2.5M (likely SEK) appears to be a misuse of terminology, likely representing cumulative or annual turnover, which is modest. As a service-based business rather than a scalable technology product, its PoU score is limited by its lack of broad utility and the low quality of the submission evidence.
