Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Pivan Interactive (Uncanny.gg) operates in a relevant, growing market (esports and live streaming) and claims a $2.5M all-time market cap. However, the submission relies on vague and exaggerated statements (e.g., claiming 'everyone' as its audience and that 'most people have used' the product) while omitting concrete data on active users or revenue. The lack of verifiable traction and poor response quality significantly reduce its overall score.
