Proof of Usefulness Score

Category Standard

The project 'Anthropic' (Claude) is a recognized Tier-1 AI entity with exceptional real-world utility, innovation, and verifiable market traction. However, the specific submission provided is of low quality, containing significant inaccuracies (e.g., stating a $75M market cap vs. actual multi-billion valuation, vague 'everyone' reach claims). Consequently, while the Base Scores reflect the company's industry dominance, the Quality Factors (Qi) for Reach and Traction were penalized to 0.5 due to the submission's lack of verifiable evidence and hyperbolic claims.
