How are you sure this information is accurate? Do you provide with analytic sources? Can the campaign owner contact you for the clarification?

@volodarik We use two-step mechanism. First our algorithms get data and process it making draft report. Then area experts look at this report and verify/update it. In such way we make result more accurate and more faster. Yes, of course owners can contact us, and this would be much better, cause we will get info from the first hands. But still this does not negate the general inspection.

@creotiv @volodarik I'm skeptic of how well an algorithm can ascertain those things. What kind of data does it actually look at? at the moment it only says how many users think that the campaign is not reliable. This is out of how many? With ~59 users with the extension, how do you get this info (I think I know, I just want to make sure)? it must not be from submissions from users with the extension.

@creotiv @volodarik PS: it would be nice to get to know why they think that it's unreliable

@joantune @volodarik we use fallback for campaigns that still not processed by us, in such case user will see users voting mechanism that you are talking about. If we process campaign then user will see something like this. Fraud: https://www.indiegogo.com/projec... OK: https://www.kickstarter.com/proj...

@joantune @volodarik We thought about comments, but then we will get problem with filtering swearing from it and other things, and it's not that thing that we wanna do right now. So maybe in feature.

@creotiv Great. After your extantion becomes popular, you need give an ability to verify info before the campaign launch.

@creotiv @volodarik: how do you get those numbers of people that do not think that such a campaign is possible in the other cases? Also, on those that something appear I like the explanation on the fraud, but I don't like just some bare percentage numbers on the Bento one. How can we get the why's? it's all about the why's to make a decision

@joantune @volodarik When there a fraud it always goes with explanation. For other we will try to make this, but in most cases it's very hard to fit few pages of info into few sentences, and also i dont think that people will like to read longreads, in most cases they need something which will say "Hey, stop for a minute, and think before baking this project". Maybe in future we will have analytic pages that will show full info that we gathered on project, but for MVP it would be overkill.

@volodarik in such case, i think, we will cooperate with platform)
