Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Despite a low-quality submission filled with hyperbolic and inaccurate claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product'), external verification confirms SigParser is a legitimate, profitable B2B SaaS generating estimated annual revenue of ~$1M. The tool solves a high-value problem (automated CRM data entry) with proven technical utility and positive third-party reviews (G2). The project's real-world value is high, though the submission itself failed to accurately represent its actual niche traction.
