Proof of Usefulness Score
Lab Mode

ZepMed provides a professional-sounding mission regarding medical image analysis, but the submission contains severe red flags. Claims such as having an audience of 'everyone', 'most people have used my product', and an unspecified 'marketcap: 50000' are entirely unsupported and implausible for a specialized medical tool. The lack of active users and logical inconsistencies strongly indicate a spam or low-effort submission, resulting in a negative score.
