Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Bittiq is a legitimate B2B Open Banking platform that was successfully acquired by Ockto in January 2023, validating its real-world utility and technology. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing false hyperbolic claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product') and nonsensical data ('marketcap: null'). While the project's actual history warrants a solid score for a small-to-mid-scale exit, the score is heavily penalized by the lack of credible evidence provided in the submission and the false claims regarding audience reach.

Description
We enable financial service providers to better understand the financial situation of their customers so they can provide the right products \u0026 services at the right time driving higher conversions and operational efficiency.\n\nAfter the first wave of Open Banking (which built the infrastructure to unlock transaction data, the ‘crude oil’), Bittiq now leads the second wave, in which intelligence is applied to ‘distill’ value from raw transaction data.\n\nBittiq’s scalable data platform interprets consumers’ banking transactions and returns actionable financial insights. Financial service providers use the platform to power various use cases, embedded into their own digital channels.
