Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

IZHO is a verified French B2B company (founded ~2019) specializing in building energy management and IoT, with a confirmed team of ~15 employees (contradicting the claimed 125). While the project has strong real-world utility in the green energy sector, the submission itself contains significant inaccuracies (claiming 'everyone' as audience and 'most people' as users), which heavily penalized the traction and quality scores. The verified existence of the business rescues the score from zero, placing it in the 'Small but promising' category despite the poor submission quality.
