Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The project represents the digital edition of Eenadu, the largest circulated Telugu daily newspaper, a verified entity with massive scale (30M+ monthly visitors) and established market dominance. However, the submission quality is extremely poor, providing vague claims ('everyone', 'most people') and nonsensical revenue data ('marketcap: 500000') instead of verifiable metrics. The high score is driven by the undeniable real-world utility, verified traction, and brand authority of Eenadu, but is significantly penalized by the lack of effort and evidence in the submission itself. The technical implementation is standard for media but highly effective at scale.
