Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The project represents ADP, a global leader in Human Capital Management with undeniable market dominance ($114B+ market cap) and reach. However, the submission itself is low-effort, misusing data fields (e.g., listing market cap as revenue, 'leadership' as technology) and providing vague claims ('most people have used my product'). Despite the poor submission quality, the objective scale and utility of ADP command a high score, adjusted downward for the lack of specific evidence and technical detail in the entry.
