Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

IntelliProve is a verified Belgian healthtech startup (spin-off from Ghent University/imec) offering smartphone-based vital sign monitoring (rPPG). The project has raised ~$2.4M (including a recent €1.25M Seed round) and secured key B2B partnerships (Wit-Gele Kruis, Helan), validating its technology and utility. However, the submission contained significant inaccuracies: the claim 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false (negligible app store reviews), and 'marketcap' was confused with private valuation. While the technical innovation and real-world utility are high, the score is heavily penalized by the misleading traction claims and poor submission quality.
