Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Granularity is a legitimate B2B startup addressing a critical need in supply chain management (demand forecasting) with AI and external signal data. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product' for a niche B2B tool) and nonsensical data ('marketcap: null', audience: 'everyone'). While the underlying technology and market timing are strong, the score is severely penalized by the lack of verifiable traction evidence provided and the poor integrity of the submission response.

Description
It's time to reinvent demand forecasting and merchandising.\n\nSupply chains face numerous threats in today's fast-paced global environment. And it all starts with a central hypothesis: what is the consumer demand for your products? Making a guess based on last month's sales doesn't cut it anymore. You need consumer data to model trends in demand that will impact your sales.\n\nOur platform allows demand forecasters to see the trends within their product market. It ingests data from social media platforms, search engines, and other sources to analyze a company's sales data. And it feeds actionable insights into a configurable dashboard for the demand planner or merchandise buyer. \n\nLearn more at granularity.ca.
