Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Device Magic is a highly successful, verified B2B SaaS platform (acquired by GoCanvas) with significant global traction (25k+ daily submissions). While the specific project submission was low-quality (vague claims like 'everyone', empty revenue fields), the underlying project's real-world utility and verified market position drive a high score. The score is penalized significantly in 'Response Quality' and 'Audience Reach' due to the inaccurate 'everyone' claim, but boosted by verifiable traction data found in the description.
