Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Xitex is a verifiable, established UK-based IoT security consultancy with high-utility services and significant partnerships (Founder Member of IoTSF, Sony, Microsoft). However, the project submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing demonstrably false claims (Audience: 'everyone', Traction: 'most people'), confusing financial data ('marketcap'), and zero supporting evidence. While the underlying business is legitimate and technically innovative, the evaluation is heavily penalized by the lack of verifiable data and the exaggerated nature of the input.
