Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Packative is a verifiable, seed-funded South Korean startup providing a B2B custom packaging platform with a 3D design editor. While the project itself has significant real-world utility, verified traction (thousands of clients, seed investment from Strong Ventures), and solid technology, the submission provided contained low-quality, exaggerated, and inaccurate data (e.g., claiming 'most people have used my product' and 'audience: everyone'). The score reflects the legitimate business value found through external verification, heavily adjusted for the poor submission quality.
