+574
Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

The project 'Layla' (layla.care) is a verified, legitimate Canadian mental health platform with significant traction (15,000+ patients, 350+ therapists), contradicting the low-quality and inaccurate submission data (e.g., 'marketcap 500000', 'most people have used my product'). While the submission itself was poor and contained exaggerations, the actual business demonstrates high real-world utility and a strong revenue model (estimated $3M+ annual revenue based on session volume). The score reflects the high verifiable traction and utility, adjusted downward for the poor quality of the response and the confusion in the submitted metrics.
