Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Persperion Diagnostics Inc. is a verifiable early-stage medical device startup (UC San Diego spinout, 2022) developing high-utility non-invasive sweat sensing technology. Search confirms they have raised ~$4M in seed funding (Nov 2023) and are in the R&D/prototype phase. However, the project submission contains significant inaccuracies (claiming 'most people' have used it and 'everyone' is the audience), which contradicts the verified pre-commercial status (~15 users in trials). The project receives high scores for confirmed technical innovation, utility, and financial traction, but is heavily penalized in 'Response Quality' and 'Audience Reach' due to the discrepancies in the submitted data.
