Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

HomeTriangle is a legitimate, established home services marketplace (founded 2014) with significant traction (~$1M annual revenue, ~175k monthly visits) verified via external search. However, the project submission itself was of very low quality, containing grossly exaggerated claims ('everyone', 'most people') and missing key data. While the business metrics place it in the 'Small but promising' tier (comparable to early-stage growth companies), persistent negative user reviews alleging scam-like behavior and poor service quality significantly impact its Utility and Trust scores. The score reflects strong financial traction balanced against reputation risks and poor submission effort.
