Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

SiE Brains is a legitimate, established IT staffing and consulting firm based in Bangalore with verifiable annual revenue exceeding $4M (approx. ₹31 Cr) and over a decade of operation. This demonstrates strong real-world traction and utility in the B2B sector. However, the project submission itself was of poor quality, containing unverifiable or false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', audience reach of 'everyone') and mislabeled financial metrics ('marketcap' instead of revenue). While the business fundamentals are solid for a service agency, the lack of technical innovation (purely service-based) and the misleading submission details significantly reduced the final score compared to a high-growth technology product.
