Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The project is Dailymotion, a globally established video platform with massive verifiable reach and utility, placing it in the 'Much larger scale' calibration tier. However, the submission itself is of very low quality, containing vague claims ('most people have used my product'), conflicting data (Team size 3000 vs 450), and inaccurate financial metrics ($75M market cap is below historic valuations). Despite the poor submission quality, the undeniable real-world traction and scale of the platform drive a high baseline score, though technical innovation and market timing scores are moderated by its legacy status and lack of detailed technical evidence in the entry.
