Proof of Usefulness Report

Cigna

Analysis completed on 1/17/2026

+702
Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The submission represents Cigna, a Fortune 15 global health services company with massive, verifiable scale ($82B+ Market Cap, 73,000+ employees). The project scores maximum points for Real-World Utility, Audience Reach, and Traction due to its established market position. However, the PoU score is dampened by the extremely low quality of the submission (vague descriptions, lack of technical detail, generic claims), which significantly reduces the Technical Innovation and Response Quality scores. The final score reflects a 'Much Larger Scale' entity, adjusted for the lack of specific project effort in the entry.
