+608
Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Stationhead is a verified, major social audio platform with over 17 million active users and significant music industry integration (e.g., streaming parties for BTS, Taylor Swift), fitting the 'Much Larger Scale' calibration (400-700+). However, the submission itself is of exceptionally low quality (Response Quality: 10), relying on hyperbole ('most people have used my product') and providing no verifiable data. The final score is high due to the project's proven real-world utility and massive traction verified externally, but is significantly dampened by the penalties applied to the Quality Factors (Qi) for the lack of evidence in the application.
