Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Winkl is a verifiable, successful influencer marketing platform acquired by The Good Glamm Group (a unicorn) in 2022. External validation confirms significant traction ($1.8M+ annual revenue, 1M+ creators, 70M+ reach via parent co). However, the specific project submission provided was of extremely low quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product') and confusing financial data ('marketcap: 399000'). The score reflects the high real-world utility and verified market success of the entity, heavily penalized by the 'Evidence of Traction' quality factor due to the poor substantiation in the input.
