As a hiring manager, I couldn't trust resumes. My team wasted so much time on screening calls, only to find the candidates weren't a match. There was no real proof-of-work, and with AI now writing resumes, the noise is just getting worse.
As a candidate, it was just as frustrating. My past work didn't help me get better roles; it felt like I was starting over every single time because my performance signals were buried in old company HR tools that no one could see.
The work-email verification anchor is the right call — keeps reviewers accountable without exposing them to politics. Curious: how do you handle the case where all of someone's reviewers come from a single employer? Does the trust score surface any signal about review-pool diversity?

@sabber_ahamed Not currently Sabeer but how would that matter. Could you please elaborate a bit more on this
AISA AI Skills Test
the "resumes don't show how someone actually worked" framing is spot on. we see the same problem from the skills assessment side — candidates who look identical on paper have wildly different AI proficiency when you actually observe how they work. peer reviews add a really interesting social proof layer on top of that. curious how you handle the cold start problem when someone doesn't have many connections yet?

@ozandag This problem will happen with users passing out from college and so far we have not found out a solution for this. Users who have professional experience will not have this problem IMO
The agent actually reached out to my old coworkers and came back with surprisingly thoughtful, honest reviews i never would have asked for myself. The trust score feels way more useful than another polished resume.

@erhankoalafnk9 Glad you like it!! Do let us know about any other additional features you would like for us to add in the future.
Finally a reference tool that pulls from real coworkers instead of just glowing LinkedIn blurbs, the anonymity part actually makes me want to leave honest feedback.

@bukete48y glad you liked Badge! Have you had time to build your trust score yet or is it 60 for now ?
Badge
@bukete48y Whom are you leaving the feedback for?
finally tried badge and the anonymous review flow is surprisingly smooth, way less awkward than chasing down old coworkers myself.

@nehirt3na Thanks Nehir. We had to build a proof of work which builds itself for professionals and we did not want users to chase people for reviews. AI agents today enable this today which was not possible before AI
Badge
@nehirt3na Yes absolutely! old coworkers, current employers, recruiters. No chasing involved. We were tired too. Hence, we built Badge!
Everyone knows LinkedIn recommendations are basically fiction at this
point. An AI quietly asking your old coworkers the awkward follow-up
questions instead of accepting "great to work with!" is such a better idea.
anonymous + verified is a hard combo to actually pull off. if reviews are tied to work email verification, doesn't that make it fairly easy to narrow down who wrote what once you know the reviewer pool is 3-4 people at a small company? genuinely curious how you're handling that, not trying to be difficult
