Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Neos Networks is a legitimate, large-scale UK telecommunications provider with significant revenue (~£160M+) and critical national infrastructure assets. The project scores highly on utility, reach, and market relevance due to its established role in the UK fiber market. However, the submission quality was extremely poor (vague claims, lazy text), which significantly reduced the Evidence of Traction and Response Quality scores despite the verifiable external success of the company.
