Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

X-Net is a verifiable UK-based IT and defense consultancy with a 29-year history, indicating stability. However, the submission contains significant discrepancies: it claims a team of 125 and 'everyone' as the audience, while external records show <10 employees and niche B2B revenue (<£1M). The claim that 'most people have used my product' is factually incorrect for a specialized defense contractor. The specific project 'SwiftSpirit' mentioned in the name field is undefined. The score reflects the entity's legitimacy but is heavily penalized for inaccurate metadata and exaggerated reach claims.
