Let the people you trust decide what deserves your attention.
Say whom you trust and which posts are worth your time, sign it with your own key, and see your circle's judgment right where you read. Nobody scores the world for you: every answer starts from you.
Two questions, kept apart
A follow is not trust, and a like is not a rating. The protocol asks two separate questions, because mixing them turns crowd gestures into fake trust.

Is this identity worth my trust?
A trust statement: trust, Neutral, or distrust about a person or account. Only trust lets your circle grow; it decides whose judgments you read.
32014
Is this artifact worth my time?
A rating from 0 to 100 for a post, page, or product. Ratings are advice from people you already trust; they never widen your circle.
- You trust people
- Your walk reaches their circle
- Their ratings become one indicator
Three products, one protocol

Personal Server
In designYour own web-of-trust server on your computer or home network: always warm, always in sync, shared by every local app.
For: self-hosters and local apps
Global Server
In designA public, high-performance resolver that answers for any root, fed by Sync Servers that crawl Nostr relays.
For: apps that need answers at scale
Principles
- Your judgments are yoursSigned with your key and published to Nostr relays, so they move with you between apps.
- Answers are relative to youTwo people can get different answers about the same account, and both are honest.
- No central scorerEvidence comes from people you trust, with the path that led to it. Nobody ranks the world.
- Servers are optional and verifiableA server saves work; it is not an oracle. Every answer cites signed events anyone can check.
