Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

QphoX is a legitimate, high-potential deep-tech company developing quantum modems and transduction systems, spun out of TU Delft. External verification confirms significant traction, including over €18M in funding (EIC, Quantonation) and major contracts (AFRL with Rigetti). However, the submission itself is of extremely poor quality, containing demonstrable falsehoods (claiming 'most people have used my product') and vague one-word answers ('everyone'). While the technology is world-class, the Proof of Usefulness score is severely impacted by the lack of credible data provided in the submission, triggering the lowest quality multipliers across all categories.
