Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Cuseum is a verified, established B2B platform (Techstars 2015) serving hundreds of museums globally with digital membership and engagement tools. While the specific submission text contained inaccuracies (claiming 'everyone' as the audience) and low-quality responses, independent verification confirms significant market traction, revenue, and utility. The project scores highly on traction and utility, but the score is dampened by the poor quality of the submission inputs regarding audience reach and descriptive detail.
