Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Built Robotics is a verifiable Series C company with significant backing ($112M raised) and a legitimate industrial product (Exosystem for autonomous excavation). However, the project submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing factual errors ('Audience: everyone', 'Evidence: most people have used my product') and confused metrics (labeling total funding as 'marketcap'). While the underlying technology and business are high-value (solving construction labor shortages), the submission's lack of effort and accuracy heavily penalizes the quality multipliers, resulting in a score that reflects the company's verified status but is capped by the poor entry.
