Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The submission presents a significant discrepancy between the URL (Ascendus.org, a legitimate non-profit lender) and the description (Executive Coaching). While the organization itself is established (founded 1991) and has substantial assets (~$75M, verified externally), the submission quality is extremely low, featuring hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and mislabeled metrics. The score acknowledges the verified real-world utility of the entity while heavily penalizing the lack of coherent evidence and poor submission integrity.
