+191
Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

GoodSign is a verifiable, profitable eSignature platform (founded 2020) with a valid 'pay-per-use' business model that solves a real user pain point. However, the project submission was of extremely low quality, containing a mismatched project name ('WhisperStone') and hyperbolic, unverifiable claims ('most people have used my product'). While the technology and utility are sound, the submission's lack of professional detail and reliance on false traction signals significantly penalized the score. The final score reflects a legitimate 'small but promising' business, adjusted downward for submission integrity issues.
