Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

LoiLo (specifically LoiLoNote School) is a verifiable market leader in the Japanese ed-tech sector with over 2.3 million daily active users and adoption in 13,000+ schools. The company has a 15+ year history and a verified team size of 43, significantly exceeding the scale of the calibration reference (HackerNoon). However, the project submission itself was of very poor quality, featuring hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and missing financial data. The final score reflects the high verifiable utility and massive traction (millions of users), penalized by the low quality of the provided evidence.
