Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

MixRank is a verified, profitable YC-backed B2B data company with ~50 employees and high enterprise utility. However, the submission itself contained false claims ('most people have used my product') and lazy data entry. The score rewards the actual business metrics (Real-World Utility, Tech Innovation) while penalizing the specific Evidence of Traction and Reach claims due to the low quality of the input.
