Proof of Usefulness Report

Transamerica

Analysis completed on 2/18/2026

+637
Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The submission represents Transamerica, a major established financial services entity with massive scale, validated by public knowledge despite the low-quality submission. While the 'Real-World Utility' and 'Audience Reach' are exceptionally high due to the company's legacy status (founded 1904, >$1B revenue), the submission itself lacks technical detail, listing 'Insurance' as a technology and providing vague traction claims ('most people'). The score reflects the massive undeniable value of the entity, heavily penalized for lack of technical innovation evidence and poor response quality in the context of a technology project evaluation.
