Get Started

Talent helps builders get rewarded by making their reputation more visible.

We track builder activity across blockchains, GitHub, and other data sources, in order to rank real contributors.

With Talent:

  • Builders get rewarded for shipping real apps
  • Ecosystems can reach and reward top builders
  • Apps can integrate verified reputation data with a single API call

What Can You Build?​

Check out talent.app as the best example of using Talent data to showcase builder reputation.

Use our API to add reputation-based context and authentication to your app, like Basenames and Etherscan. You can also build search and discovery features to find top builders, or create custom scoring systems using our data primitives.

Core Concepts​

Talent is built around the following core concepts to create a comprehensive reputation system:

  • Profile: The unified representation of a builder's identity and reputation data. A Profile can represent either a verified User or an independent Account.
    • Users can have multiple connected Accounts feeding data into their Profile
    • Independent Accounts have their own Profile until claimed by a User
  • User: An individual who has signed up on one of our apps and verified their identity. Users can connect multiple Accounts.
  • Account: A connection to a third-party data source (wallet, GitHub, X, etc.) that provides reputation data.
  • Data Point: A specific verified fact about a builder (GitHub stars, wallet transactions, etc.).
  • Events: Historical records of reputation changes
  • Score: A numerical measure of reputation calculated from Data Points using a specific Scoring System.
