+402
Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

The project references Lattice, a verifiable 'unicorn' status HR software company with significant real-world utility and traction (valued at ~$3B). However, the specific submission data is of exceptionally poor quality, containing factually incorrect financial figures ('marketcap 17000000'), hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product'), and vague descriptions. The final score is heavily penalized by the low 'Quality Factor' (0.5) due to the submission's lack of effort and accuracy, preventing it from reaching the 600-700+ range typical for a company of this actual scale.
