Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Statusphere is a well-established influencer marketing platform (Series A, 125+ employees) with high real-world utility and strong market relevance. While the external verification confirms significant scale (serving brands like Coty and LG), the specific project submission provided was low-quality, containing lazy assertions ('audience: everyone') and verifiable inaccuracies ('most people have used my product'). The score reflects the high underlying value of the verifiable business, significantly penalized by the poor quality of the submission evidence.
