Proof of Usefulness Score

Industry Mainstay

Snaptrude is a legitimate, venture-backed Series A company (approx. $22M funding) offering a high-utility browser-based BIM tool. However, the submission itself is of extremely poor quality, containing false claims ('most people have used my product', 'reach: everyone') and lazy data entry. While the underlying technology and business are strong (competing with Autodesk Revit), the PoU score is heavily penalized by the lack of credible evidence provided in the submission and the niche nature of the current user base (~20,000 verified vs 'everyone' claimed).
