+494
Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Seeds Investor is a verified Series A fintech company (approx. $16.5M raised) managing over $475M in assets (AUM) as of late 2024. The platform provides legitimate high-utility B2B tools for financial advisors to personalize client portfolios based on behavioral finance. However, the submission quality is extremely poor, containing false claims ('most people have used my product', 'audience is everyone') and nonsensical data ('marketcap: null'). The score reflects the strong verified traction of the actual company, heavily penalized by the low integrity and quality of the specific submission.
