Gaining Momentum

UseB. is a legitimate South Korean RegTech company providing eKYC solutions, verified by its acquisition by the KOSDAQ-listed company Alchera in 2022. While the submission text was of very poor quality with exaggerated claims ('everyone' as audience), external data confirms the company has over 80 enterprise clients and valid AI technology (OCR, liveness detection). The score reflects the strong real-world utility and verified exit/traction, penalized heavily for the low-quality submission inputs.
