Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Screencastify is a market-leading EdTech platform with verifiable massive scale (12M+ users, used in 70% of US school districts), placing it firmly in the highest calibration tier. However, the specific submission provided was extremely low-quality, omitting critical data and utilizing vague hyperbole (e.g., 'most people have used my product'). While the verifiable reality of the business drives a high score, the lack of effort in the submission significantly reduced the Quality Factors, preventing the project from achieving a near-perfect score typical of this traction level.
