+464
Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Indagare is a verified, well-established luxury travel business with significant scale (est. $50M revenue, 120+ employees), far exceeding the calibration baseline. However, the project submission was of exceptionally low quality, containing demonstrably false claims ('reach: everyone', 'traction: most people') and lacking veracious detail. Consequently, the score reflects a high-performing real-world business heavily penalized for a 'Vague/Unsupported' submission quality and unverifiable claims within the application itself.
