Proof of Usefulness Score
Unicorn Utility

Transcend is a verified Series B data privacy infrastructure company with over $90M in funding and major enterprise customers (Robinhood, J&J, Brex). While the submission itself was low-effort (vague claims, misuse of fields), independent verification confirms exceptional market traction, technical utility in the GDPR/AI compliance space, and a strong growth trajectory. The score reflects the high value of the business, tempered by penalties for the poor quality of the submission evidence.
