Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Calipsa is a highly successful, verified project acquired by Motorola Solutions in 2022, offering proven AI-based false alarm filtering for the security industry. While the project itself has exceptional utility, innovation, and verified traction (global adoption), the specific submission provided contains low-quality, lazy, or unverifiable claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'marketcap: null'). The score reflects the high intrinsic value of the technology and its successful exit, heavily penalized by the poor quality of the submission evidence.
