Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

The project 'Behavioral Signals' is a legitimate, venture-backed Emotion AI company with significant verifiable traction ($22M+ funding, Gartner recognition). However, the submission itself appears to be low-effort or automated (user 'DeepWing', claim 'most people have used my product'), which heavily penalized the score. The final rating reflects the strong underlying reality of the company's technology and market position, tempered by the poor quality of the submitted evidence.
