Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Hero AI is a legitimate, high-potential healthcare technology company verified through external search to be deployed at major institutions like SickKids Hospital. The platform solves critical problems in patient flow and safety using AI (e.g., Beacon). However, the project submission itself was of extremely poor quality, containing demonstrable falsehoods (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience 'everyone') and unprofessional details (submitter name 'SwiftBlade'). The score reflects the high intrinsic value and innovation of the verified company, significantly penalized by the lack of credible evidence provided in the submission and the false claims made by the submitter.
