+540
Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Equiti Group is a verified, large-scale global financial brokerage with significant revenue ($30M+ verified in UK arm alone) and a multi-national footprint (UAE, UK, Kenya, etc.), contradicting the low-quality submission data. While the project itself has high real-world utility and traction, the submission by 'ShadowForge' contained false claims ('most people have used my product') and nonsensical metrics, necessitating a penalty on the Quality Factors. The score reflects the strong underlying business fundamentals identified via external verification, adjusted downward for the poor evidence provided.
