Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

TurningIdeas Ventures is a verifiable incubator/advisory firm based in India (est. 2016) with a portfolio including 'Your-space' and 'Buddy4study', which have raised over $20M USD. However, the submission itself is of extremely poor quality, containing demonstrable falsehoods (claiming 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people' as having used the product) and nonsense data ('marketcap: null'). While the underlying business has real-world utility and B2B traction, the submission fails to provide credible proof, resulting in a heavily penalized score in the 'Minimal Traction / Red Flags' range.
