Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Mazza Innovation is a legitimate entity with high-value proprietary technology (PhytoClean™) and was acquired by Sensient Technologies in 2018, validating its real-world utility. However, this submission appears to be automated or low-effort, characterized by unverifiable and hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product', 'everyone') and missing financial data. The score reflects the proven high utility of the underlying technology, heavily penalized for the poor quality of evidence and likely 'zombie' nature of the submission.
