Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Double Robotics is a well-established entity in the telepresence hardware market with a verified history since 2011. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') and missing financial data. While the project has significant real-world utility and technical legitimacy, the score is heavily penalized by the poor response quality and lack of verifiable traction evidence provided in the input. The final score reflects the project's external reputation adjusted for the submission's deficiencies.
