Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Scale3 Labs is a legitimate, VC-backed (Redpoint, $5.3M Seed) Web3 infrastructure company building 'Autopilot' for blockchain nodes. However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('everyone' audience, 'most people' traction) and minimal data. The score reflects the high verifiable real-world utility and traction of the actual company, heavily penalized by the poor reliability and quality of the submission inputs.
