Two people shaking hands across a table — a kept commitment, not a credit report

Commitment stills

Proof of a kept word, photographed as evidence — not a lifestyle feed.

Each stake has a counterparty, a due date, and a signed line. Merit records the keep, the break, and the repair. Fitness rings and credit-file theater stay off this desk.

How karma accrues

Commitments become vouches. Vouches become ledger.

Merit is not surveillance. You choose what to stake, who can vouch, and who can see the score. Kept promises raise karma. Broken ones leave a trail you can resolve.

People seated at a long table agreeing terms before a commitment is staked

01 — Commit

Stake a promise with a counterparty.

Deliver by Friday. Repay a loan. Cover a shift. Both sides see the terms before karma can move. An unsigned stake is not a score event.

Two people reviewing work together — the relationship a peer vouch is built on

02 — Vouch

People who kept with you can stand behind you.

Weight scales with their own Merit trail. Anonymous noise does not move the rail. A vouch is a signed line, not a like.

03 — Dispute

Friction gets a file, not a silent demotion.

When a stake breaks, either party opens a dispute. Resolve it and dispute health recovers. Leave it open and the rail shows the scar.

Trust dimensions

Four signals. One private score.

01

Reliability

Did you keep what you committed to, on the terms both sides agreed?

02

Consistency

Do kept commitments hold across time, counterparties, and stakes?

03

Vouch strength

Who stands behind you — and how strong is their own Merit trail?

04

Dispute health

When friction hits, do you resolve cleanly or leave open scars?

Sample ledger

Karma has a paper trail.

Positive lines for kept commitments and strong vouches. Negative lines for broken stakes and unresolved disputes — always with context, never a silent demotion.
