Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

QuarterPoint (qptag.com) is a verifiable B2B IoT entity with significant traction in the agricultural sector, specifically through its 'SmartBox' seed monitoring solution developed in partnership with Seedbox Solution and Trace Engineering. External search confirms a service contract for 10,000 units in 2025 and integration with Nordic Semiconductor and Saft technologies. However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('audience: everyone', 'most people have used my product') and nonsensical financial data ('marketcap: 50000'). The Proof of Usefulness score reflects the high real-world utility and verifiable commercial traction of the actual business, severely penalized by the poor response quality and inaccurate reach claims in the submission.
