Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Zealth-AI is a legitimate Y Combinator (W21) company providing verifiable value in remote patient monitoring for oncology and COVID-19, which anchors the score in the 'Small but promising' range. However, the submission itself is of critically low quality, characterized by hyperbolic false claims ('most people have used my product'), missing financial data, and a likely non-founder submitter pseudonym ('SilentBlade'). These red flags resulted in significant penalties to the Traction and Response Quality metrics, preventing the score from reaching the 400+ range typical of verified YC startups.
