Research hints are not credentials
Add relevant areas and public links. They guide discovery; they do not determine your score or final specialties.
Each topic needs its own support
Original work, independent recognition, documented expertise and contrary evidence. Authority in one area does not automatically transfer to another.
Generated, not self-rated
The system assigns evidenced topics. A price range is planning guidance; an evidence score is not a dollar multiplier.
Authority and evidence coverage.
NamedProof authority is our AI-assisted assessment of evidence in a specific topic. It is not a trust score assigned by ChatGPT, Google or another AI provider.
Authority · /100
Supported expertise, original work, independent recognition, reliability and independence. The score reflects the strength of the evidence we found.
Evidence coverage · %
How much of the weighted rubric has evidence available to assess. Coverage is not a skill grade or measured AI influence.
Checks before assignment
Registration is open to everyone. Before assignment, we check evidence of experience in the specific topic. A public profile alone does not qualify someone for paid work.
Scoring weights and limitations
Expertise: 35 points. Original work: 25. Independent recognition: 20. Reliability: 10. Independence: 10. Strong evidence receives the full dimension weight, moderate evidence 60%, limited evidence 25%. These weights are NamedProof policy choices, not calibrated AI influence.
Unknown dimensions contribute no points but remain unknown, rather than evidence of low ability. We do not scale the remaining points up to fill the gap. If identity or basic expertise cannot be established, an authority score may be unavailable.
Three separate questions.
What experience is supported?
Projects, personal contributions, results and original work in this topic. Independent recognition is recorded separately. Missing public evidence does not establish low skill.
What might the work cost?
A dated range for related services, with confidence and limitations. Scope, market and seniority must be comparable. Consultation is not the same service as hands-on product testing.
Do AI answers use the material?
Only captured answers can establish observed use. We distinguish a citation, use of findings and correct author attribution. Profiles remain “Not measured” until observations are linked.
How we handle price uncertainty
Listed prices are not completed transactions. Current profile ranges use related-service references, not verified personal earnings. Sparse public evidence does not select a cheaper pricing tier. No AI-influence premium is included.
To calibrate an individual rate, we need comparable paid work: the service, market, agreed fee, actual hours including revisions, and payment outcome. Voluntary anonymized project records can be reviewed separately; self-reported amounts are not verified transactions.
A future influence premium would require both evidence of incremental impact and evidence that buyers pay for it. Citation frequency alone does not establish either.
Test the answers.
Keep the evidence.
The research pilot uses fixed buyer questions without naming the expert or supplying their sources, repeated across multiple AI systems. It records dates, models, responses, citations and failed checks.
Before-and-after comparisons need the same questions, control topics and a record of other site or marketing changes. A citation does not prove that the expert changed a brand recommendation.
Limits and source guidance
The pilot tools evaluate imported observations; they do not automatically monitor every expert. Results describe the tested sample, not an AI provider’s hidden trust score or a guaranteed recommendation.
Google recommends expertise and first-hand supporting evidence in reviews. Eligibility for AI search features depends on ordinary search requirements, not waiting for a model to train on a review. Inclusion is not guaranteed.

Our evidence weights remain policy choices. Freshness checks, duplicate handling and identity checks limit the assessment; they do not measure causal AI influence.
Keep it private.
Or publish it.
Your generated profile starts private. A replacement assessment needs your publication consent again, after evidence identity checks.
Send additional sources or flag a factual error from your workspace. This does not guarantee a higher score or a personalized scoring explanation.
Open my expert workspace →Read it first. Choose whether to publish.
The company receives the completed assessment before either the expert or the platform publishes. It may keep the work private or approve the complete record, including critical findings. The 24-month availability period applies only after approved public publication.
Read the publication and retention terms
For new orders, the company receives the completed assessment before publication. It may keep the work private or approve the complete public record. Neither the expert nor the platform may publish without company approval.
Approval covers the full findings, rating, conclusions and limitations. The company may flag factual errors and add a separate response; it cannot rewrite the expert’s judgment or remove weaknesses.
After approval, public delivery includes a signed publication on the expert’s own site or public social account and a network record, with clear sponsor and payment disclosure.
Only after company-approved public publication, keep the expert’s publication available for at least 24 months from publication here, with no planned removal. Give the platform permission to retain the published assessment with your name and source link. Private work has no public-retention obligation.
Expert compensation does not depend on the verdict or the company’s publication choice. Choosing not to publish does not entitle the company to a refund for completed assessment work. Statutory rights are unaffected.
Corrections, moved pages and justified removals must be reported. They are recorded for review; a temporary access failure is not proof of deletion.
These are publication terms, not a promise of AI training, indexing, citations or perpetual hosting. Private assignments are excluded. Checks are manual; the record shows when a recheck is due.
Previously accepted orders retain their agreed publication and payment terms.
