Anecdotally, yes. It has correctly matched me with two known first cousins, and as first-second cousin (ie, first cousin once removed) with the daughter of one of those first cousins. And interestingly, it discovered a first cousin once removed that no one in the family had never known about. (verified because of the family names that she knew about - although distorted.) I knew the first cousin who was her mother (more than 10 years older than I am), who already had given up one child to adoption. So yes, in my case, it has been informative and accurate.
