Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Seeq is a verified, high-value industrial analytics platform with significant market presence, addressing critical needs in process manufacturing (pharmaceuticals, energy, etc.). While the project itself demonstrates exceptional real-world utility, technical sophistication, and verified traction (Series C funding, extensive enterprise adoption), the submission quality is notably poor. Claims such as 'audience reach: everyone' and 'traction: most people' are factually incorrect for a B2B product, necessitating a penalty on the quality factors for those criteria. The score reflects the strong underlying business reality adjusted for the low-effort submission.
