Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The Sabi is a verifiable early-stage wellness brand (founded 2022) offering hormonal health skincare and herbal infusions, with confirmed pre-seed funding and media coverage. However, the submission contains significant inaccuracies and hyperbole: 'audienceReach' claimed as 'everyone' and traction as 'most people have used my product' are demonstrably false for a niche startup. The team size (30) appears exaggerated compared to the funding stage (likely <10 operational). While the project has real-world utility and verified existence, the score is heavily impacted by the lack of credible traction data and the non-technical nature of the product (CPG/retail vs. software).
