Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

StubGroup is a verified, established Google Premier Partner agency (founded 2012) with significant real-world traction, including a successful YouTube channel and high-value client services (fixing ad suspensions). However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing vague, false, or lazy data (e.g., claiming audience is 'everyone' and traction is 'most people'). The score reflects the strong underlying business reality, heavily penalized by the poor submission quality and lack of specific provided evidence.
