Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

SensorFlow is a verifiable, high-growth PropTech scale-up with over $11M in funding and significant traction in the hospitality sector (10,000+ rooms). The project has high real-world utility in energy management. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, providing factually incorrect audience claims ('everyone') and lazy traction evidence ('most people'). The score reflects the high verified value of the company, heavily penalized by the poor quality of the submission data.
