Proof of Usefulness Score

Gaining Momentum

Tochtech Technologies is a verifiable, established Canadian company (est. 2014) offering legitimate senior care hardware solutions (Smarturns, Sleepsense). However, the project submission is of extremely poor quality, containing significant exaggerations ('audienceReach': 'everyone', 'evidenceOfTraction': 'most people have used my product'). While the company has verified partnerships (Best Buy, pilots) and utility, the submission's lack of accuracy and detail heavily penalizes the score. The final rating reflects a 'Small but promising' business downgraded due to submission integrity issues.
