Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Nextmv is a legitimate, venture-backed 'DecisionOps' platform (YC W20) solving high-value logistics and optimization problems, which drives a high Real-World Utility and Innovation score. However, the submission quality is exceptionally poor, containing vague or factually incorrect claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone'). Consequently, the Audience Reach, Traction, and Response Quality scores are heavily penalized via the Quality Factor. While the technology is robust and the market timing is ideal, the lack of verifiable data in the submission limits the PoU score to the 'Small but promising' range.
