Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

GoPaani is a legitimate B2B SaaS platform for water delivery businesses in India, backed by 3one4 Capital (Seed round ~$600k). While the project has verifiable traction (thousands of suppliers, ~50k+ downloads) and a team of ~50, the submission itself contained significant hyperbole ('most people have used my product', 'everyone') and lacked precise data. Verified revenue (~$30k FY24) is low relative to the team size, indicating early monetization or high burn, contrasting with the 'marketcap' claim which likely refers to a valuation of ~₹26.7 Crore ($3.2M). The score reflects a promising regional solution with backing, heavily penalized for poor submission quality and low revenue efficiency compared to calibration benchmarks.
