Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Hungry Harvest is a verified, established company with significant traction ($14M+ annual revenue, Shark Tank investment, >15M lbs food rescued), fitting the 'Much larger scale' calibration tier. However, the submission itself was of very low quality (user 'StarClaw', inaccurate 'everyone' reach claim, confused financial terminology). The score reflects the high real-world utility and verified market position, heavily penalized in the Response Quality and Audience Reach sections due to the poor data provided by the submitter.
