Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

SportsGrid is a verifiable, high-growth media company (Inc. 5000 rank #688) with estimated annual revenue over $17M and significant reach across OTT platforms (225M+ potential reach). However, the submission itself was of extremely low quality, featuring copy-pasted job description text, inaccurate tags ('space-technology'), and unsubstantiated claims ('most people have used my product'). The score reflects the strong market position and verifiable external traction of the entity, significantly discounted by the poor quality and lack of specific evidence in the submission.
