Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Zakiant LLC provides practical IT consulting, cloud migration, and managed services with clear real-world utility. However, the submission is hindered by vague and exaggerated claims regarding traction and reach (e.g., claiming the audience is 'everyone' and 'most people have used my product'). Operating since 2014 with 30 employees and an 'all-time marketcap' of $2.5M indicates a functioning regional or niche business, but it lacks the verifiable scale and technical novelty required for higher tiers. The overall score reflects an established small business penalized for poor submission quality and unsupported assertions.
