Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Skedulo is a major Series C enterprise company ($115M+ funding) with verified high-value traction (35M+ appointments, SoftBank backing). Despite the submission containing lazy input data (e.g., 'most people' for traction), the actual real-world utility and market scale are exceptional. The project solves a critical problem for the 80% of the global workforce that is deskless. The final score is calibrated to the 'Much Larger Scale' tier (400-700+), adjusted downward slightly for the low-quality submission response.
