Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Lumenci is a verified, established IP strategy and patent monetization firm with significant traction (~350 employees, est. $12M+ revenue). While the project fundamentals are strong and the team size indicates substantial operation, the submission itself is of low quality. The user ('ThunderForge') provided vague or false claims for reach ('everyone', 'most people'), which contradicts the company's B2B nature. The score rewards the verifiable scale and utility of the actual business while penalizing the poor response quality and inaccurate reach claims.
