Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Cetopo is a legitimate, revenue-generating SaaS platform for architects with verified traction (250+ enterprise clients including Sweco). The project solves a high-value problem (site context automation) with strong technical integration. However, the submission quality was extremely poor, containing hyperbolic and inaccurate claims ('audienceReach: everyone', 'most people have used my product'). While the underlying business is promising and established (Top of 'Small but promising' tier), the final score is penalized by the lack of credible user-submitted evidence and the specific inaccuracies in the reach claims.
