Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Zymewire is a well-established, revenue-generating B2B SaaS company ($8M+ annual revenue) providing sales intelligence to the biotech/pharma industry. While the project itself demonstrates high real-world utility and verified traction far exceeding the calibration baseline, the submission quality was exceptionally poor, containing false claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product', 'audience: everyone') and invalid data fields. The score reflects the strong underlying business fundamentals, heavily penalized by the lack of accurate self-reporting.
