Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Soula is a verified AI-powered maternity care assistant (soula.care) with ~$1M in seed funding (Fulcrum Ventures) and ~300k users. While the submission quality was poor (containing hyperbolic claims like 'most people have used my product' and 'reach: everyone'), external verification confirms a legitimate team, functional product (4.7 stars on App Store), and industry awards (Reflect X). The project demonstrates strong utility in the FemTech sector, though the 'Evidence of Traction' and 'Reach' scores are balanced by the early-stage nature of the startup compared to established benchmarks.
