Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Portrait (Portrait Care) is a verified, venture-backed aesthetic medicine platform with significant traction ($25M+ funding, Sequoia Capital, ~105 employees, 800+ providers). While the submission itself was of extremely poor quality (containing false hyperbolic claims like 'most people have used my product' and 'everyone'), independent verification confirms the project is a high-utility, high-growth business in the med-spa vertical. The score reflects the strong real-world utility and verified market position, heavily penalized in the 'Response Quality' metric due to the lazy submission.
