Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project 'Armd Limited' (URL: armd.uk) is a legitimate and promising UK-based insurtech company offering tool insurance and IoT alarms for tradespeople. External verification confirms seed funding (~£300k+), partnerships (Accelerant, Toolstation), and active operations. However, the submission itself is of extremely poor quality and likely automated or erroneous: the submitted project name 'WhisperHeart' appears unrelated (likely a hallucination or copy-paste error), and traction claims ('most people have used my product') are demonstrably false. The score reflects the strong underlying business utility and verified existence, heavily penalized for the inaccurate and low-effort submission data.
