Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

helviX is a legitimate, verifiable B2B SaaS company based in Munich serving the steel trading industry (e.g., customer Bestar Steel Group). However, the submission quality is critically low, submitted by 'WhisperRider' with demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone'). While the project has real-world utility and good market timing, the submission fails to provide valid evidence, necessitating a low score heavily penalized for data integrity and lack of professional detail.
