Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Locofy.ai is a high-potential Series A startup with significant backing ($7.5M from Accel, Northstar) and adoption (>500k users). It solves a critical pain point in the design-to-code workflow using advanced Large Design Models (LDMs). However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('most people have used my product') and missing data. While the actual project is highly useful and innovative, the score is constrained by the poor submission quality and the 'Small but promising' calibration range.
