Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Wherobots is a high-potential Series A startup ($27M raised) commercializing Apache Sedona, a widely adopted open-source geospatial engine. While the project itself possesses exceptional technical utility, innovation, and verified enterprise traction (Amazon, Uber, etc.), the submission provided by the user 'BlazeHunter' was of extremely poor quality. Claims such as 'most people have used my product' and 'audience reach: everyone' are demonstrably false for a B2B platform, and the revenue figure appears erroneous. The score reflects the high intrinsic value of the technology (verified via external search) heavily penalized by the low credibility of the submission inputs.
