+108
Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Syncly is a verifiable, high-potential B2B AI startup backed by Y Combinator (W23) with $3.3M in Seed funding (Nov 2023). While the submission data itself was extremely poor (claiming 'everyone' as audience and 'most people' as users), external verification confirms strong traction with enterprise clients (LG, Logitech) and a verified leadership team with a previous $200M exit. The score reflects the high quality of the actual business significantly dampened by the low-quality submission.
