Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

BetterPlace is a verified market leader in India's blue-collar workforce management sector, with significant scale (~$60M+ revenue, 15M+ users, Series C/D funding). While the project demonstrates exceptional real-world utility and traction (verified via external search despite the user's hyperbolic 'most people' claim), the submission quality itself was poor, lacking specific verifiable data in the traction fields. The score reflects the high intrinsic value and proven market position, penalized slightly for the low-effort submission.
