Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Verb Technology is a legitimate, publicly traded company (NASDAQ: VERB) with a verified suite of interactive video sales tools (verbCRM, verbLIVE). However, the project submission is of extremely low quality, featuring demonstrably false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'audience reach: everyone') and outdated financial metrics (Market Cap ~$42M vs current ~$3-4M). While the underlying technology and business operations are established (operating since 2012 with ~200 employees), the evaluation is heavily penalized for the lack of precise, current traction data and the exaggerated reach claims in the submission.
