+341
Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Tag-N-Trac is a legitimate, venture-backed company (Series A, $11.8M funding) with significant strategic investors (Dell Technologies Capital, Merck) and valid B2B traction in logistics/pharma. The submission quality was extremely poor (e.g., claiming 'most people have used my product' and null revenue), which severely impacted the Response Quality score. However, external verification confirms high Real-World Utility (FDA/cold-chain compliance), strong Technical Innovation (ultra-thin smart labels), and solid Market Timing. The score reflects the high value of the actual business, adjusted downward for the unprofessional submission data.
