Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Lexer is a verified, established Customer Data Platform (CDP) serving major enterprise retail clients (e.g., Optus, Cotton On, Billabong) with over $34M in funding and a team of 50-200. While the project submission itself was of exceptionally poor quality (containing nonsensical claims like 'most people have used my product' and 'revenue: null'), the underlying business is high-value, mature, and operates at a significantly larger scale than the calibration baseline. The score reflects the company's strong real-world utility and verified market traction, heavily penalized in the 'Response Quality' metric due to the lazy data submission.
