Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Naver Labs is the high-value R&D subsidiary of Naver Corporation, a proven tech giant. The project demonstrates exceptional technical innovation in robotics, AI, and autonomous driving with high real-world utility. However, the submission quality is poor, with vague claims ('everyone') and confusing metrics ('marketcap 2500000'). While the underlying technology and entity are world-class (warranting a high score), the lack of specific evidence in the submission triggers lower quality multipliers for traction and reach.
