Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The project 'Culture Amp' is a widely recognized, unicorn-status HR technology platform with significant verifiable utility and traction (serving ~7,500 companies and 25M employees). However, the submission itself is of very low quality, containing vague fillers (e.g., 'Audience: everyone', 'Tech: Computer Software') and inaccurate metrics (Team Size listed as 7500 likely confuses staff with customers; Market Cap of 75M is drastically lower than the actual ~$1.5B valuation). The high score reflects the proven real-world status of the entity, heavily penalized in the Response Quality and Innovation documentation sections.
