Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

ms.GIS is a verified Austrian technology company (est. late 1990s) specializing in Smart City, IoT, and Geospatial solutions with substantial partners (City of Vienna, FIWARE) and a claimed team of 125. However, the submission quality is extremely poor, featuring hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product', 'everyone') and confusing financial data ('marketcap 2500000'). While the real-world utility of the technology is high and the organizational scale is significant, the lack of verifiable evidence in the submission and the unprofessional response quality heavily penalize the score.
