Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project represents GPO USA (German Precision Optics), a legitimate and established entity in the sporting optics industry founded in 2016. The submission accurately identifies the 'Centuri' product line but is marred by a low-quality response from the user ('DeepBlade'), utilizing hyperbolic claims ('everyone', 'most people') and confusing financial metrics ('all time marketcap: 17000000'). External verification confirms GPO USA is a functional SME with active distribution, professional media reviews (e.g., American Hunter, Sporting Shooter), and verifiable physical products. The score reflects strong real-world utility and business stability, significantly penalized by the unprofessional submission quality and lack of verifiable growth data provided directly.
