Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

ChannelMeter is a legitimate, established player in the Creator Economy (founded ~2011) with significant claimed volume ($1B+ managed). However, the submission quality is notably poor, featuring hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product', 'everyone') and lacking verifiable data links. The score reflects the strong underlying business fundamentals and market relevance, heavily penalized for low-quality input data.
