Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Realfin is a verified, high-utility business intelligence platform for real assets, recently acquired by With Intelligence (S&P Global). The project demonstrates significant real-world value, strong market timing, and verified traction (acquisition, global client base). However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality (using the pseudonym 'ShadowFang', false 'everyone' reach claims, and non-standard metrics). The score reflects the high intrinsic value of the verified business, heavily penalized by the poor quality factors of the submission data.
