Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

SustainAX is a verified, legitimate Nordic ESG research and consulting firm with significant B2B validation, including distribution via the Bloomberg Terminal and coverage of over 330 companies. Despite the project's high real-world utility and market relevance, the submission itself is of exceptionally poor quality, featuring hyperbolic falsehoods (e.g., claiming 'most people' have used the product) and misused financial terminology. The score reflects the underlying strength of the business and its strategic partnerships, heavily discounted due to the unreliable and unprofessional nature of the input data provided.
