Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Medinet is a long-standing (30-year) healthcare infrastructure provider in British Columbia, offering critical services like PharmaNet access and medical billing. While the real-world utility is high within its regional niche, the submission quality is poor, featuring hyperbolic audience claims ('everyone', 'most people') and confusing financial metrics ('marketcap: 2500000' likely referring to revenue). The project scores well on stability and utility but loses points on innovation (legacy tech) and submission accuracy.
