The badge
What the Verified Builder badge means.
It's earned, not bought. Three things separate a verified builder from a résumé.
Shipped, not claimed
Every builder has at least one live, public, working product before they wear the badge.
Reviewed by humans
A founder reads the portfolio, runs the interview, and writes the call notes. No algorithm.
Continuously vouched
The badge stays only while the work stays good. One bad delivery and the cap comes off.

FAQ
Questions builders ask.
Subscribe for $49/mo to get full platform access, then apply for verification — submit your portfolio and shipped projects for review, and book a recorded founder interview. Once you pass, you wear the Verified Builder badge.
Every Verified Builder has shipped at least one public project, had their portfolio reviewed by a founder, and passed a recorded interview about how they build. The badge is visible on the profile and stays active while the subscription is paid and the work stays good.
Platform access is $49/mo. That covers your builder profile, the verification review, client introductions, and the community. Your earnings from client work are yours.
Your contract is with the client. We make the introduction and vouch for you — we don't sit in the middle taking a markup on every invoice.
It isn't a bidding marketplace. Every builder is human-reviewed and has shipped real, public products. The badge is earned through a portfolio review and a founder interview, not bought or won on price.
Yes. Verified builders operate under our standard NDA terms by default, and will sign a client NDA on request.
