Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

AirWorks is a high-potential Series A company providing AI-powered autonomous drafting for the construction industry, with verifiable funding (~$25M) and significant market utility. However, the submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('DeFi', 'used by everyone') and lacking evidence. The score reflects the strong underlying business fundamentals found via external verification, heavily penalized by the poor response quality and unsupported claims in the submission.
