Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Wyld Networks is a verified, publicly listed company (Nasdaq First North: WYLD) providing satellite IoT connectivity using LoRaWAN. However, the project submission contains significant inaccuracies (claiming 'most people' have used it, stating a team size of 125 vs actual ~26, and confusing market cap with revenue). Financially, the company is in distress with a stock price decline of ~97% over the last year and annual revenue (~$35k USD) far below the input claims. While the technology (satellite IoT) is innovative and holds high utility potential, the lack of commercial traction, financial instability, and poor quality of the submission data result in a low Proof of Usefulness score falling into the 'minimal traction' calibration bucket.
