Levels

Levels are earned through verified work — never bought. Each one opens a new floor.

How proof is verified

Task-verified

Someone posted a task, this member did the work, and the poster approved it.

Confirmed by the person who asked for the work. This is the strongest signal here.

Confirmed

A collaborator the member named on this work confirmed they were part of it.

Confirmed by someone else who was there — but nobody hired or paid for it through us.

Self-posted

The member says they did this. Nobody else has confirmed it.

Unverified. Treat it like a portfolio piece anywhere else on the internet.

We never label work simply “verified”. The label always says who stood behind it, so you can judge it yourself.

How XP is earned

Task approved by the poster+100
Swapped Strong Suits with another member+100

A task you posted was completed+10
A project you built launched+25
Your first proof+10

XP is capped so it can't be farmed: a few approvals a week, and only twice with the same person every 90 days. Likes, follows, shares and invites are worth nothing.
