Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

iDreamCareer (iDC) is a verified, significant EdTech player in India with Series A funding (~$2.2M raised), ~2.5M annual student reach, and government partnerships. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and erroneous data (market cap listed as 73.7 Billion instead of the actual ~73.7 Crore INR valuation). The score reflects the high real-world utility and verified scale of the business, heavily penalized by the poor response quality.
