Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Brighthouse Financial is a verifiable Fortune 500 insurance provider with billions in market capitalization, ensuring exceptional scores for Utility and Traction despite the submission's poor quality. The 'Audience Reach' and 'Technical Innovation' scores were penalized due to vague, hyperbolic claims (e.g., 'everyone', 'most people') and a lack of technical detail. The final score reflects a high-value entity significantly heavily weighted by its scale, adjusted downward for the low-effort submission.
