Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Foodpanda is a verified titan in the Asian food delivery market with massive reach and utility, justifying a high baseline score. However, the submission quality is extremely poor, featuring lazy evidence ('most people have used my product'), missing metrics, and null data fields. While the project's real-world status carries the score into the 'Large Scale' calibration range (400–700+), the lack of effort in the submission and the resulting Quality Factor penalties prevent it from reaching the elite tier (800+) it might otherwise merit.
