Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Greehill is a verified, high-utility company (founded 2017) providing digital twin and Smart Tree Inventory solutions for urban forestry. They have significant traction through partnerships with major industry players like Davey Tree Expert Company and government bodies like Singapore's National Parks Board. The technology (LiDAR, AI, 4D modeling) is innovative and highly relevant to climate resilience. However, the submission quality is extremely poor: the user ('FrostWalker') made false claims about audience reach ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') and provided nonsensical financial data ('marketcap: 500000'). While the project itself is robust and impactful, the score is penalized by the low credibility of the submission input.
