Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

iLife Technologies is a legitimate, high-growth insurtech company backed by top-tier VCs (Series A, ~$21M total funding). The platform offers a 'Shopify-like' OS for insurance agencies, addressing significant industry pain points. However, the project submission itself was of extremely poor quality, containing hyperbolic and false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'everyone'). While the actual company traction and utility are high (verified via external search), the score is heavily penalized due to the lack of verifiable data provided in the input and the unprofessional nature of the response.
