Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Mailmodo is a verified, high-traction B2B SaaS platform (YC Winter 2021) with estimated annual revenue of ~$2.5M and a team of 100+ employees. It solves a significant problem in email marketing using AMP technology to enable interactive emails. However, the submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing vague claims ('most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone') and lacking data. The final score reflects the project's verified high utility and market position, heavily penalized by the poor quality of the submission and exaggerated claims.
