Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

AgileVentures is a verified UK-based non-profit established in 2012 that provides high real-world utility by connecting aspiring developers with charitable projects for pair programming experience. However, the project submission is of extremely poor quality, relying on demonstrably false and hyperbolic claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience 'everyone') and confusing financial metrics ('all time marketcap'). While the organization's verified longevity and social mission prevent a negative score, the lack of credible internal traction data and the unprofessional submission severely limit its Proof of Usefulness score to the 'Minimal Traction' range.

Project Details

Description
Agile Ventures is a non-profit organization dedicated to crowdsourced learning and project development. We follow the agile approach to software development (see below), and do so online everyday using remote pair programming technologies such as google hangouts. Anyone at any skill level can participate or simply observe in the remote pair programming sessions and planning meetings as we develop solutions for real customers in the non-profit sector. There are no minimum requirements, simply an interest to learn.
