Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Ranplan Wireless is a verifiable, publicly traded company (Nasdaq First North: RPLAN) offering legitimate, high-utility 5G/network planning software. However, the project submission contains significant inaccuracies (e.g., team size claimed as 350 vs. actual ~50, incorrect project name 'WhisperKeeper', and vague traction claims like 'everyone'). While the technology is robust and the company is established, its micro-cap financial status (approx. $1-2M revenue with losses) and poor submission quality result in a score comparable to early-stage legitimate ventures rather than scaled unicorns.
