Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Wizco is a legitimate functional platform connecting job seekers with interview coaches, recently enhanced with an AI tool named 'Ava'. While the project has verifiable existence (founded 2020, press coverage in 2023), the submission quality is extremely poor, containing hyperbolic falsehoods ('most people have used my product') and missing data ('marketcap: null'). External search confirms a valid but early-stage niche business with low verifiable traction (e.g., <10 Trustpilot reviews) compared to the 'everyone' audience claim. The score reflects a functional product heavily penalized for unsubstantiated claims and lack of transparency in the submission.
