Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Breef is a verified, high-traction Series A agency marketplace that has processed over $100M in project value and raised ~$21M in funding. However, the submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing a mismatched project name ('DeepForge'), false audience claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product'), and missing financial data. The score reflects the high real-world value and proven market fit of the actual platform (Breef.com), heavily penalized by the poor reliability of the submitted response.
