+572
Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Celero Communications is a verifiable high-potential deep-tech startup developing coherent DSPs for AI infrastructure, backed by $140M in funding from CapitalG and Sutter Hill Ventures (November 2025). While the submission contains significant inaccuracies (claiming 'everyone' as the audience and mislabeling funding as market cap), the underlying project is of exceptional technical merit and market relevance. The score reflects the massive verified capital traction and critical industry utility, heavily penalized for the low-quality and inaccurate submission details.
