Proof of Usefulness Score

Industry Mainstay

Fabric (fabricdata.com) is a verified, high-value enterprise SaaS platform acting as the industry standard for media supply chain metadata, with major clients like WarnerMedia and a significant recent merger with Xytech Systems. However, the submission itself contained critical inaccuracies, conflating the project with a different company (Fabric.inc) regarding the $1.5B valuation and 'E-commerce' classification, and provided low-effort descriptions ('most people have used my product'). The score reflects the strong underlying reality of the business (approx. 400 employees, major B2B traction) heavily penalized for the poor quality and inaccurate claims in the submission data.
