Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Venus Technology Ventures (acquired by Xpansiv in 2020) developed '/mīstrō/', a conversational AI interface for commodity trading data. While the project achieved a successful exit (validating utility and traction), the submission itself is of poor quality, containing hyperbolic false claims (e.g., 'everyone' as audience, 'most people' have used it). The score reflects the verified historical success of the company, penalized significantly by the lack of credible evidence in the submission and the niche nature of the actual product.
