Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Qosmos (acquired by Enea) is a verified industry leader in Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) technology, essential for cybersecurity and telecom networks. While the submission content was low-effort (e.g., claiming audience is 'everyone' and using the alias 'FrostForge'), the project fundamentals are exceptionally strong. External verification confirms the 'marketcap' claim aligns with its ~$60M acquisition valuation in 2016. The project represents a high-utility, large-scale technology infrastructure, scoring highly despite the poor quality of the descriptive text.
