Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Aarin is a verified, high-traction Brazilian Techfin company acquired by Next (Bradesco) in 2022. While the submission data was of extremely poor quality (vague claims like 'most people have used my product' and missing metrics), external verification confirms it is a significant player in the Pix and Embedded Finance market with over 160 employees and massive transaction volumes. The score reflects the high real-world utility and verified commercial success, heavily penalized only in the 'Response Quality' metric due to the lazy submission.
