Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Siro (siro.ai) is a verifiable, high-growth Series B startup with ~$75M in funding, serving the field sales market. While the submission itself was of extremely poor quality (claiming 'everyone' as the audience and providing no metrics), external due diligence confirms significant traction, including $50M raised in 2025 and thousands of B2B users. The project solves a high-value 'dark data' problem for offline sales. The score reflects the company's actual mature status (comparable to or exceeding the calibration reference), though penalized for the low-effort submission.
