Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The project 'SmartWriter.ai' (submitted as GoldenForge) is a verified, revenue-generating B2B SaaS tool for personalized cold email outreach, launched in 2021. Despite an extremely poor submission containing hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and generic targeting ('everyone'), external verification confirms the product has established market traction, thousands of users, and a functional team of ~7. The score reflects the solid real-world utility and verified business metrics, heavily penalized by the low quality of the submission and lack of provided evidence.
