Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

LiFO is a dominant media brand in Greece with verifiable mass-market reach (4.8M+ monthly visitors) and a long operational history (since 2005). While the submission contained some lazy field entries (e.g., 'most people have used my product'), the underlying business metrics—team size of 350 and top-tier national ranking—indicate a project of significant scale, far exceeding the calibration baseline. The score reflects high utility and traction, tempered slightly by low technical innovation (standard publishing model) and mixed submission quality.
