+725
Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Payabl. is a verified, established FinTech company (founded 2011) with significant scale (~$62M annual revenue, ~220-350 employees) and verifiable monthly traffic (~950K visits). While the project submission itself was extremely low-effort (vague claims like 'everyone' and 'most people'), independent verification confirms it is a high-utility payment infrastructure provider serving a large merchant base. The score reflects its 'Much Larger Scale' status, heavily penalized only in the Response Quality section for the poor submission data.
