Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

STEMpedia (Agilo Research) is a verified, high-traction EdTech company generating ~$3M verifiable annual revenue with a user base of ~300,000 students across 70 countries. The project offers tangible hardware (evive) and software (PictoBlox) solutions with strong problem-solution fit. However, the submission quality was extremely poor, featuring hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and lazy data entry ('Audience: everyone'). The final score reflects the high real-world value and verifiable market position, significantly penalized by the lack of direct evidence provided in the submission.
