Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

The submission for 'CoPlane' contains significant inaccuracies (claiming 'everyone' as audience, '0' team size, and 'most people' have used it). However, external verification confirms CoPlane is a legitimate, high-potential enterprise software company founded by Chris Sperandio (ex-Stripe) that raised a $14M Seed round led by Ribbit Capital in Nov 2025. The project solves a high-value problem (ERP automation) with agentic AI. The score reflects the verified high utility, innovation, and strong financial backing ($14M), heavily penalized in the 'Response Quality' and 'Reach' sections due to the user's erroneous submission data.
