Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

State Farm represents a massive, established entity with undeniable real-world utility and traction ($87B+ revenue, 90M+ policies). While the project itself (the company) scores at the top of the scale for reach and utility, the specific submission provided is of extremely low quality, offering vague claims ('most people have used my product') rather than detailed metrics. The score reflects the sheer magnitude of the business, penalized slightly for lack of technical novelty and poor submission effort, aligning with the 'Much larger scale' calibration tier.
