Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Go Together Inc. addresses a genuine real-world problem (school transportation logistics) with a verifiable presence in 27 states. However, the submission contains significant inaccuracies: the claimed team size (125) drastically exceeds trusted third-party data (~2-10 employees), and the 'marketcap' of 2.5M likely refers to a valuation or cumulative metric rather than revenue, suggesting an early-stage venture. The claim 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false. While the utility is high, the score is heavily penalized for poor data integrity and exaggerated traction claims.
