Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Pinch LLC addresses a genuine pain point in property management (vendor consolidation) with a verified operational footprint and relevant market timing. However, the submission quality is critically low, containing significant inaccuracies (e.g., claiming 'everyone' as the audience, 'most people' as traction, and confusing market cap with revenue). While the business model is sound and external validation confirms its existence since 2021, the score is heavily penalized by the lack of verifiable data and the deceptive nature of the traction claims.
