Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Glints is a highly successful, Series D funded recruitment platform in Southeast Asia with over $80M in funding and ~6 million users. The project has exceptional real-world utility and market fit. However, the submission itself was of very low quality, featuring vague claims ('most people have used my product'), missing data, and incoherent fields ('all time marketcap: null'). The score reflects the massive verified scale and utility of the company (600+ range), heavily penalized in the Response Quality and Quality Factor metrics due to the lack of effort in the submission.
