Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

AviaryAI is a verifiable Y Combinator (S22) startup providing high-utility AI voice agents for financial institutions, backed by $3M in seed funding. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing hallucinations (claiming 'most people' use the product) and inaccurate data (listing 'everyone' as the audience and 'marketcap' in the revenue field). While the core technology and market timing are strong, the project's score is heavily penalized by the lack of credible details in the application and the obvious discrepancies between the submission claims and verifiable reality.
