Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Walstead Group is verified as a massive, market-leading European entity with over €700M in revenue, significantly outscaling the submission's erroneous claim of '50000 marketcap'. While the submission quality is extremely poor (garbage data, vague claims), the underlying business has undeniable utility and reach. The low score for innovation and response quality drags down what would otherwise be a top-tier score based on pure business scale.
