Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The project 'Accruent' (incorrectly named 'IronSpirit' in the name field) is a major, verifiable enterprise software company acquired for $2.0B in 2018. While the submission itself is of extremely low quality—containing false audience claims ('everyone') and lacking detail—the underlying entity demonstrates exceptional real-world utility, significant market traction, and large-scale revenue ($270M+). The score reflects the massive verifiable success of the company, adjusted downward due to the poor quality of the submission evidence.
