Proof of Usefulness Score

Industry Mainstay

8Flow is a verifiable, VC-backed B2B startup (raised $6.6M in 2023) offering AI-driven workflow automation for customer support. Founded by industry veterans (ex-ServiceNow VP), the project has strong fundamentals, high market relevance, and credible technical innovation. However, the submission itself contained significant inaccuracies (claiming 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people' have used it) and poor quality responses, which negatively impacted the score. The revenue/market cap figure provided appears confused, but external data suggests healthy early-stage traction.
