Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Appknox is a verifiable, established (2014) B2B security SaaS with significant traction (300+ enterprise clients, Gartner recognition). However, the project submission itself contained low-quality, exaggerated user inputs ('everyone', 'most people') which contradict the professional nature of the business. While the real-world utility and verified traction are high, the score is penalized by the poor response quality and validity of the specific form claims.
