Talent Protocol: Onchain Reputation for Builders

Talent Protocol brings professional reputation onchain to help great builders stand out.

Unlike LinkedIn's self-reported resumes, we focus on verified data to showcase real, impactful work. Our core product, the Builder Score, combines reputation data from GitHub, multiple blockchains, and hundreds of other data points to create a builder profile that’s 10x more accurate and comprehensive.

For builders, we provide an easy way to verify their skills, get more recognition, and earn rewards.

For ecosystems, Talent helps identify high-potential builders, create targeted incentive programs, and make more informed grant allocation decisions.

And for app developers, we offer a powerful API to integrate verified reputation data, activity metrics and identity verification into their products — all in one request.

With over 10 million accounts indexed and dozens of apps integrating our API, we're building a reputation standard for the new internet.

Core Concepts

Talent Protocol 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.
