Tongo is a legitimate, venture-backed fintech company (Series Seed, ~$12.6M funding) providing commission advances for real estate agents. However, the project submission itself is of extremely poor quality, containing false claims ('audienceReach: everyone', 'most people have used my product'), lazy data entry, and a lack of verifiable evidence. While the real-world utility of the product is high and the company has traction (179% growth), the PoU score is heavily penalized by the submission's failure to provide accurate or credible information, limiting the score to the 'promising but unproven' range.
