Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

GoCharlie is a verifiable, VC-backed Generative AI startup (raised ~$4M, Product Hunt #1 Product of the Day) offering proprietary multimodal models for marketing. However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing factually incorrect claims ('everyone' as audience, 'most people have used my product') and missing data. The score reflects the legitimate potential and verified backing of the company, heavily penalized by the lack of effort and accuracy in the submission data.
