Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

causaLens is a legitimate, high-potential Series A Causal AI company with significant backing (~$45M funding) and enterprise traction. However, the submission itself ('DeepBlade') was of extremely low quality, containing false user claims ('most people have used my product') and inaccuracies regarding revenue/market cap. The score reflects the strong underlying technology and market position, heavily penalized for the unverified and hyperbolic nature of the specific submission data.
