Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Propseller is a verified, high-growth proptech company in Singapore (Series A $12M led by Vertex Ventures, estimated annual revenue ~$17M, profitable as of 2021). Despite the low-quality user submission (which contained false claims like 'most people have used my product' and empty metrics), the project itself demonstrates exceptional real-world utility and traction. The company employs ~100 people and has closed over 3,500 transactions, placing it significantly above the calibration reference in terms of scale and impact. The score reflects the strong business fundamentals while penalizing the poor quality of the form submission.
