Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

The project 'C-Change Labs' is a legitimate and highly impactful climate-tech entity, known for the EC3 (Embodied Carbon in Construction Calculator) tool. External search verifies the 'Tesla of sustainability' quote (COP26) and significant industry partnerships (Microsoft, Skanska). However, the specific submission data is of extremely poor quality, containing false claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') and missing metrics. The submitter name 'BlazeForge' and the numeric email prefix suggest this may be a student project or low-effort entry rather than an official company application. The score reflects the high real-world utility of the actual C-Change Labs technology, heavily penalized by the low credibility and quality of the provided submission text.
