Yubo

Analysis completed on 2/4/2026

+409
Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Yubo is a widely established social networking platform with over 60 million verified users and significant venture backing (Series C), despite the submission containing factually incorrect data (e.g., 'Team Size: 0') and lacking descriptive detail. While the project itself possesses high real-world utility and massive traction, the score is heavily penalized (Quality Factor 0.5) to reflect the extremely poor quality of the submission evidence. The final score acknowledges Yubo's 'Unicorn' status but is capped due to the failure to provide proof within the input.
