Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Designhill is a well-established graphic design platform with significant revenue ($15M-$25M annually) and a strong market presence (founded 2014). While the submission text itself was low-effort and contained hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and a generic project name ('SilentClaw'), external verification confirms it is a legitimate, high-traction business comparable to 99designs. The score reflects the high real-world utility and verified financial success, heavily penalized by the poor quality of the submission data.
