Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The project represents Quorum Software, a verified and massive enterprise entity in the energy sector with ~$880M in revenue and over 1,800 customers. However, the submission itself appears to be low-effort or unauthorized (user 'ThunderBlade'), containing verifiable description data mixed with nonsensical claims (e.g., audience 'everyone', traction 'most people'). The evaluation scores the high real-world utility of the actual company while applying significant penalties to Response Quality and Audience Reach due to the poor submission accuracy.
