Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Birdeye is a verified market leader in reputation management with over $100M ARR and 150,000+ customers, positioning it significantly above the calibration baseline. While the project entity is highly established and impactful, the specific submission quality was poor (vague claims like 'everyone', typo-ridden revenue data), which heavily penalized the Response Quality metric. However, the sheer scale, verified traction, and utility of the platform drive a high final score consistent with a 'Much larger scale' enterprise.
