Proof of Usefulness Score

BuildAptive appears to be a legitimate B2B property management and energy efficiency platform, evidenced by a functional website offering offline mobile inspections, standardized templates, and energy benchmarking tools. However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing demonstrable falsehoods (e.g., claiming 'most people' have used the product and 'everyone' is the audience) and nonsensical data (e.g., 'marketcap: null'). While the underlying technology has clear utility for a specific niche (auditors, property managers), the lack of verifiable third-party traction and the unprofessional submission heavily penalized the score. The project falls into the 'Minimal Traction' category.
