Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

BOND.AI is a legitimate, established B2B fintech company (est. 2016) offering the 'Empathy Engine' and 'Autopilot' to financial institutions. External verification confirms significant traction with over 50 bank partners and ~$3.5M in seed funding, placing it in the 'Comparable scale' tier relative to the calibration benchmark. However, the submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and generic data. Consequently, while the project scores highly on Utility and Traction due to verifiable external reality, the Response Quality score is penalized heavily.
