+676
Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Avantune is a well-established digital company (founded 1994) with significant verified traction (~$18M annual revenue, ~125 employees) and a global B2B presence (200 resellers). While the project submission itself was of very poor quality—containing false claims like 'most people have used my product' and vague targeting—the actual business fundamentals place it in the 'Much larger scale' calibration tier. The score reflects the legitimate success and utility of its products (Genialcloud, Powua) despite the subpar submission effort.
