Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Blackbook.ai is a verified, high-traction Australian AI consultancy with estimated revenue exceeding $60M and ~350 employees, positioning it well above the benchmark for scale. However, the submission quality was exceptionally poor, containing false generalizations ('everyone', 'most people') and lacking specific evidence. The final score recognizes the project's significant real-world utility and market position (verified via external search), but is heavily penalized in the Response Quality and Audience Reach metrics due to the vague and inaccurate input provided.
