Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Fanztar is a verified seed-stage startup (raised ~$648k from India Quotient) offering a Web3/fan-engagement platform with approximately 22,000 creators. However, the PoU submission is of extremely low quality, containing vague responses ('software-development') and demonstrably false claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product'). While the project has legitimate financial backing and market presence, the submission's lack of transparency and effort heavily penalizes the score. The evaluation relies on external verification of the company's status rather than the provided input.
