Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Jackett is a legitimate, venture-backed EdTech startup (raised ~$1M Seed in 2022 led by Forge Ventures) focused on AI-driven assessment automation for teachers. While the external validation is strong (50k+ questions generated, ~10k teachers), the submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and lacking verifiable details. Furthermore, the current active status of the web platform is ambiguous in 2026 search results, suggesting potential stagnation or a pivot. The score reflects the verified funding and utility, heavily penalized by the poor submission quality and uncertain current operational status.
