Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The project 'GoldenForge' appears to be a submission for eKomi, a well-established and highly successful feedback management company founded in 2008. While the submission data itself is low-quality (using a placeholder name, vague 'evidence' text, and confused financial metrics), the underlying business entity is verifiably large-scale with over 15,000 customers (including major global brands) and 350+ employees. The score reflects the proven high utility, significant market reach, and established traction of eKomi, adjusted downward slightly due to the poor quality of the submission entry itself.

Description
We believe in the power of authentic, more and better reviews. We call it: Trust-as-a-Service, only by eKomi. Since Google is “going social” and customer reviews are integrated into Google AdWords and Google Shopping, a new value dimension for customer reviews has been opened. Since 2008, eKomi supports businesses via a web based Social Commerce solution, to proactively collect product, customer reviews, and seller ratings from real customers. The feedback is used for marketing purposes such as displaying it on company websites, on Facebook, and through eKomi's global partnership with Google – also in Google search results and ads. We have collected millions of authentic consumer reviews and over 15.000 customers worldwide are working with us, including global players like AXA, Allianz, DHL, ESPRIT and Medion.
