Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Givzey is a verified 'Give Now, Pay Later' (GNPL) and AI-autonomous fundraising platform for nonprofits, with significant backing ($2.1M+ Seed) and university clients (William & Mary, Bucknell). However, the project submission itself was of extremely poor quality, containing false claims about reach ('everyone') and traction ('most people have used it'). The final score reflects a high-potential business (comparable to the calibration benchmark) significantly penalized for submission integrity issues.
