Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

The project 'Blanket' (blanket.app) is a verifiable B2B SaaS platform for multi-unit restaurant operations, counting chains like Primanti Bros as clients. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience 'everyone') and nonsense data. While the company appears to have a legitimate team (claimed 45) and revenue potential, public app store reviews are poor (2.4/5 stars), suggesting significant product quality hurdles. The score reflects the verified existence of the business and its clear utility to a niche market, severely penalized for the lack of credible submission data and poor public user sentiment.
