VERDICT

Should I use Perma?

Not disclosed - perma.cc

Depends. Low confidence — reviewed sources barely cover the actual product. Buy only if you're in law, academia, or journalism and need permanent citation links; general business teams should skip it.

Confidence

Low. Based on 3 usable public sources; most search results matched unrelated 'PERMA' products, so confidence is low
