Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Balluun is a verified, established B2B SaaS platform (founded 2009) with estimated annual revenue of ~$8M and ~$12.5M in funding, positioning it well above the calibration baseline in terms of scale. However, the project submission itself contains significant inaccuracies and low-quality data (claiming 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people' have used it). The score reflects the strong underlying reality of the business, heavily penalized by the poor submission quality and unverifiable claims provided in the input.
