+501
Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Project identity verified as LivePerson (NASDAQ: LPSN), a major public enterprise with ~1B monthly interactions and significant utility. However, the submission itself ('SwiftForge') is extremely low-effort, providing lazy data fields ('everyone', 'most people') for a sophisticated entity. While the underlying metrics for Utility, Reach, and Traction are elite due to the company's established market position, the score is tempered by the lack of specific evidence in the submission and current market challenges (stock performance/competition). The score reflects a 'Large Scale' entity (400-700 range) adjusted for submission quality.
