Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

OpsLyft is a legitimate, seed-funded B2B FinOps platform with verified enterprise traction (e.g., Freshworks, HDFC Life) and backing from reputable investors. However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') and nonsensical data ('marketcap: null'). While the underlying business is promising and solves a genuine problem (Cloud Cost Management), the score is significantly penalized due to the submission's lack of credibility and effort, requiring independent verification of all traction signals.
