Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Project 'Nodalview' (submitted as WhisperClaw) is a verified, high-growth PropTech company. While the submission form fields contain low-effort placeholders (e.g., 'most people have used my product'), the description and external search results confirm a legitimate business with ~$10M estimated revenue, €10M+ in funding, and over 20,000 active B2B users. The project scores highly on traction and utility, significantly outperforming the 'HackerNoon' calibration baseline due to its established market position and revenue generation. The score is penalized slightly for the poor quality of the specific form responses but boosted by strong external evidence.

Description
Over 10.000 real estate agents use Nodalview to capture AI-powered eye-catching photos and 360° immersive virtual tours of properties using their smartphone. \n\nIn November 2020, we raised € 4,1 M in funding, following the previous € 1,7 M in September 2019. This last year, we have grown from 15 to 50 people, and we will grow even stronger in 2021. We can safely say we have achieved product-market fit and that we are financially healthy. \n\nSo now it's time to scale and conquer the market ! We were already active in France, Belgium and Switzerland, and are currently expanding into new markets in Portugal, Spain and Italy.\n\nIn august 2021, we moved to our very own offices in Brussels, close to the forest (Bois de la Cambre, Ter Kamerenbos), a place we can really call home.
