Proof of Usefulness Score

Industry Mainstay

Veterans Advantage is a highly established entity (founded 2000) with estimated revenues of $100M+ and major Fortune 500 partnerships (United, Apple, etc.), placing it in the 'Much Larger Scale' category. However, the submission itself was of extremely poor quality (vague claims like 'most people have used my product', missing metrics), which necessitated significant penalties on the Quality Factors for Reach and Traction. Despite the lazy input, the verifiable real-world utility and massive scale of the business drive a high score, reflecting its status as a market leader in the military verification and benefits space.
