Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Jobber is a highly successful, verified Series D company with over $100M ARR and 200k+ users, positioning it well above the 'Scale' calibration. However, the submission itself contained lazy, hyperbolic, and inaccurate data (e.g., team size '7500', audience 'everyone'), which significantly impacted the quality multipliers. While the real-world utility and traction are undeniable, the score is penalized for the poor quality of the application data.
