Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Appcentric is a verified Umbraco Platinum Partner agency based in Birmingham, UK, with a track record of delivering digital products for clients like GAME (retail app with 3M+ users), LBMA, and various charities. While the submission contains hyperbole ('everyone', 'most people') and confusing financial metrics ('marketcap: 2500000'), external validation confirms it is a stable, established business (est. ~2013) with a team of ~30 professionals. The project scores well on utility and verifiable client traction but loses significant points due to poor submission quality, lack of proprietary product ownership, and vague claims regarding audience reach.
