Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Terminal Africa is a legitimate, verifiable logistics technology company in Nigeria that has raised ~$2M in venture capital (Seed stage) and serves over 3,500 businesses. However, the project submission was of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('most people have used my product'), lazy descriptions ('Terminalis'), and a lack of verifiable data despite the actual company having strong metrics (130k+ shipments). The score reflects the project's high real-world utility and verified market status, heavily penalized by the 'Response Quality' and 'Quality Factors' due to the submitter's failure to provide accurate evidence.
