Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

XTEN-AV is a verified, high-utility B2B SaaS platform solving complex Audio-Visual design challenges with AI. While the project itself demonstrates strong market fit, technical innovation, and industry adoption (e.g., InfoComm awards), the submission quality was exceptionally poor. Claims such as 'everyone' for audience and 'most people have used my product' are demonstrably false exaggerations, resulting in significant penalties to the Quality Factors. The score reflects the solid reality of the business (11-50 employees, established 2017) tempered by the lack of credible evidence provided in the input.
