Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project 'ClearFeed' (submitted as 'StarSpirit') is a legitimate, venture-backed B2B SaaS platform (Seed funding $2.7M from Sequoia Surge/8VC) that streamlines Slack-based customer support. However, the submission quality is critically low, containing hallucinated data ('most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone') and incorrect metadata. While the actual product has high real-world utility and verified traction (~100 enterprise customers), the score is heavily penalized by the submission's lack of credible evidence and professionalism. The final score reflects a promising Seed-stage company weighed down by a failing submission quality factor.
