Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Mailprotector is a verified, established B2B entity (founded 1999, ~125 employees) with significant real-world utility in the MSP email security market. However, the project submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('audience reach: everyone', 'traction: most people have used my product') and vague technical details ('Computer Software'). The score reflects the company's proven scale and longevity, heavily penalized for the poor quality and inaccuracy of the submission data.
