Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Matillion is a verifiable B2B 'Unicorn' ($1.5B valuation) with significant real-world utility in cloud data integration. While the project fundamentals (revenue, team size, market position) are exceptional, the submission itself was low-effort, containing exaggerated claims ('most people have used my product') and vague audience descriptions. The score reflects the massive scale and success of the business, heavily penalized by the poor quality of the specific evidence provided in the submission text.
