It is not great on many levels.
It only runs against the Firefox user agent. This is not great as the user agent can easy be changed. It may work now but tomorrow that could all change.
It doesn't measure load so even if your website has only a few people accessing it they will stick have to do the proof of work.
The POW algorithm is not well designed and requires a lot of compute on the server which means that it could be used as a denial of service attack vector. It also uses sha256 which isn't optimized for a proof of work type calculation and can be brute forced pretty easily with hardware.
I don't really care for the animé cat girl thing. This is more of a personal thing but I don't think it is appropriate.
In summary the Tor implementation is a lot better. I would love to see someone port it to the clearnet. I think this project was created by someone lacking experience which I find a bit concerning.
I use https://sx.catgirl.cloud/ so I'm already primed to have anime catgirls protecting my webs.
Catgirls, jackalgirls, all embarrassing. Go full-on furry.
