Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

SambaSafety is a verifiable market leader in driver risk management, serving over 15,000 organizations and backed by major private equity (Stone Point Capital). The project has high real-world utility and significant traction. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing vague claims ('everyone', 'Computer Software') and inaccurate traction statements ('most people have used my product'). The score reflects the high intrinsic value of the established business, heavily penalized for the poor quality and lack of specific evidence in the submission data.
