Trust Marks
Trust Marks are the fast way to scan for creators worth your time. They summarize five public Trust Score tiers at a glance. Unrated sits outside the tier system until we have enough evidence to score.
🛡️🛡️🛡️ Must-Follow
Highest-confidence trust tier. Worth seeking out intentionally.
🛡️🛡️ Worth Prioritizing
Worth a detour from your usual feeds.
🛡️ Worth a Watch
Pause your scroll for them.
Use Discretion
Mixed signal tier. Check the receipts before relying on this creator.
Proceed Cautiously
Current evidence falls below our trust threshold. Double-check the receipts before relying on this creator.
Unrated
Not enough scored material yet to publish a Trust Score with confidence.
How to Use Trust Marks
- Use 🛡️🛡️🛡️ to build a short “must-watch” list.
- Use 🛡️🛡️ to widen your sources without lowering quality.
- Use 🛡️ to keep reliable voices in rotation.
- Use receipts on creator pages to verify why they’re rated that way.
- Use Discretion means mixed signals; Proceed Cautiously means recent evidence falls below our threshold; Unrated means not scored yet.
Methodology
Trust Marks come from the five-tier Trust Score system, which is designed to be auditable.
