Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The project represents SentinelOne, a major publicly traded cybersecurity firm (NYSE: S) with significant market presence and technological utility in XDR and identity security. However, the submission itself contains highly inaccurate data (understating market cap by billions, claiming 'everyone' as the audience) and low-quality responses. The high score reflects the verified external reality of the entity's scale and utility, heavily penalized by the poor quality and unreliability of the specific input provided.
