Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The project represents Hyperconnect, a verified major technology company (acquired by Match Group for $1.73B) and creator of the Azar app. While the submission data is low-effort (e.g., claiming 'everyone' as the audience and citing '300M' market cap vs the actual multi-billion dollar valuation), the underlying real-world utility, massive global reach (500M+ downloads), and proven WebRTC technical innovation warrant a high score. The evaluation bridges the gap between the poor submission quality and the undeniable massive scale of the entity.
