Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Benme is a verifiable B2B SaaS platform for employee benefits, based in Lithuania, with confirmed EU grant funding (~€900k project value) and active development. However, the submission itself is of extremely poor quality, containing demonstrable falsehoods (e.g., claiming 'most people have used my product' and listing 'leadership' as a technology). While the project has real-world utility and verified backing, the PoU score is heavily penalized due to the dishonest traction claims and lazy input data.
