+185
Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Sarafin AI is a verified Vancouver-based company (est. 2021) with ~30 employees and tangible B2B partnerships (e.g., Adept Link in Vietnam, IoT World). The products 'Farm Guard' (AgTech) and 'Seoul Music Labs' (EdTech) have verifiable digital footprints and pilot programs. However, the submission is significantly degraded by hyperbolic claims (reach: 'everyone', traction: 'most people have used my product') and inaccurate financial data ('marketcap' for revenue). While the technology and utility are promising in niche markets, the poor response quality and misleading reach claims heavily penalize the score.
