ProgrammableWeb

The project 'ProgrammableWeb' was historically a cornerstone of the API economy, serving as the premier directory for APIs and mashups from 2005 until its shutdown in 2023. However, this specific submission receives a critically low score due to three factors: 1) The project is currently discontinued/inactive (redirecting to MuleSoft), meaning it possesses near-zero current real-world utility as a standalone entity; 2) The submission quality is extremely poor, citing 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people have used my product' as evidence without data; 3) The submitter appears to rely on the legacy brand name without providing verified current operational metrics. While the historical traction was immense, the Proof of Usefulness methodology assesses current viability and submission quality, both of which are failing in this context.
