Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Aether Biomachines is a legitimate, high-potential Series B biotechnology company with significant funding (~$64M) and a verifiable valuation (~$245M). The project scores highly on technical innovation and real-world utility due to its application of AI and robotics to enzyme engineering. However, the submission itself was of extremely poor quality, containing demonstrable falsehoods regarding audience reach ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') and lacking descriptive detail. The score reflects the strong fundamentals of the underlying business, heavily penalized for the inaccurate and lazy submission data.
