Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Carwow Deutschland represents a market-leading automotive platform with verified unicorn-scale metrics ($100M+ revenue, ~600 employees). While the project's real-world utility and traction are exceptional, the submission itself was of very poor quality (lazy descriptions, 'null' data fields). The high score reflects the verifiable success of the underlying business, heavily discounted from a potential 800+ due to the lack of effort in the submission materials.
