Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

HVN (stayhvn.com) is a verified high-growth company, ranking #77 on the 2023 Inc. 5000 list with over 6,000% 3-year revenue growth and ~110 employees. The platform aggregates luxury rental supply for B2B/B2C channels, demonstrating high real-world utility and market fit. However, the specific project submission provided contained low-quality, hyperbolic data (e.g., claiming 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people have used my product' as traction). The score reflects the exceptional external verification of the business's success, heavily penalized by the poor response quality and the necessary correction of the user's exaggerated claims.
