Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

The submission for Alterna CX highlights a legitimate enterprise AI platform with solid market relevance and a reported team size of 125. However, the application features poorly defined metrics, exaggerated and unverified claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience reach 'everyone'), and low overall response quality, resulting in heavily penalized traction, reach, and technical innovation scores.
