Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

DX Group is a verified, major UK logistics operator established in 1975 with significant scale (7,500+ employees, £400M+ revenue). While the project submission itself was low-effort (lazy responses, missing technical details), the underlying business has undeniable real-world utility, massive audience reach, and proven traction that far exceeds the calibration baseline. The score reflects the high value of the established infrastructure, penalized slightly for the lack of specific technical evidence in the entry.
