Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Wild Alaskan Company is a verified, established direct-to-consumer seafood brand with significant scale (50-200 employees) and high market relevance. However, the submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing exaggerated claims ('most people have used my product') and missing financial data. The score reflects the strong underlying business fundamentals and verifiable external traction, heavily penalized by the lack of specific evidence and poor effort in the project submission.
