Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Ocergy is a verifiable, high-impact Series A climatetech company backed by major investors like Chevron Technology Ventures, Octopus Energy, and Moreld ($36M+ funding). The project develops critical floating offshore wind foundations (OCG-Wind) and environmental monitoring buoys (OCG-Data) with confirmed pilots in France, Japan, and the US. However, the submission itself provided extremely poor evidence, including false claims ('most people have used my product') and vague descriptions. The final score acknowledges the verified high utility and market traction of the company while applying significant penalties for the low-quality and inaccurate submission data.
