Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

The submission for 'WTarget' (wtarget.io) contains critical red flags and deceptive data. While 'wtarget.io' appears to be a niche WhatsApp marketing tool, the submission claims the operational scale of Target Corporation (400,000+ employees, launched 1902). This blatant impersonation or conflation of a small SaaS tool with a global retail giant renders the traction and reach claims invalid. The submission is evaluated as a deceptive or 'joke' entry, resulting in a negative score.
