Proof of Usefulness Score

Gaining Momentum

Nerder is a legitimate 'white label' coding agency based in Calgary (est. 2018), serving marketing agencies. The project demonstrates solid real-world utility in the B2B sector. However, the submission contains significant inaccuracies, conflating the agency with the public company 'Nerdy Inc' (NRDY) regarding market cap ($75M claimed) and claiming 'most people' have used it. The score reflects the value of the actual business while heavily penalizing the false data and lack of specific, verifiable traction metrics in the input.
