Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Jugnoo is a verified, Series B funded entity with significant historical traction in the Indian auto-rickshaw aggregation market, raising over $16M. However, the submission data contains unverifiable hyperbole ('most people have used my product') and confusing financial metrics ('marketcap' vs. valuation/revenue). External verification confirms the company is active but has pivoted significantly towards B2B SaaS (Jungleworks) and hyperlocal delivery, with current annual revenues estimated around $2.5M—comparable to the calibration baseline but with a larger organizational footprint (93+ employees). The score reflects the legitimate business scale and history, heavily penalized for poor submission quality and evidence.

Description
Jugnoo started out as Uber for autos and aims to be the largest in “hyper-local” using the auto-rickshaws as a conduit to get there. The economics are unique and such in India that the model makes a lot economic sense without huge capital outlay because the rickshaws are already there and the drivers want extra income.\n\nUsers can get everything on-demand through Jugnoo's suite of apps - be it an auto, fresh home cooked food or get anything else you want delivered right at your doorstep.\n\nJugnoo launched in 34 cities within 24 months and will be soon launching in other cities across India.\nWe have completed our Series B round and are scaling things up.\n\nhttps://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Jugnoo\u0026hl=en\nhttps://itunes.apple.com/in/artist/socomo-technologies-private/id975186195\n\n
