Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Pacvue is a verified market leader in the eCommerce advertising space, acquired by Assembly in 2021 (valuation >$1B). While the project entity represents a 'Much Larger Scale' success (managing billions in ad spend, ~200 employees), the submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing factual inaccuracies ('audienceReach: everyone') and lazy descriptions. The score reflects the massive real-world utility and verified traction of the software, heavily penalized in the Audience and Innovation categories due to the submitter's failure to provide accurate details.
