Proof of Usefulness Score
Unicorn Utility

David AI (withdavid.ai) is a verifiable, high-growth AI infrastructure company that has raised ~$80M (Series B) as of late 2025. Founded by former Scale AI engineers, it solves a critical bottleneck in audio AI data. While the submission text itself was low-effort ('ThunderHeart', 'most people have used my product'), external search validates the 'marketcap' claim (~$500M valuation) and significant traction with 'Mag7' customers. The score reflects the project's elite market position and high utility, penalized slightly for the poor quality of the submission responses.
