PieTrust is an "open company" developing a secure reputation system for sharing credit.
Our system can be used to help projects recognize and reward contributors by using peer review, to allow people to rate each others' skills on social networks, or as a reputation system that can be integrated into other websites.
The core of our system is a collusion-resistant algorithm (implemented as a web service) that takes peer evaluations as input, and produces as output a reputation score for each person. The reputation scores can be used in various ways:
* to make decisions in which the most respected people have the most weight
* to make payments proportional to reputation
* to trade services using reputation as a medium of exchange
* to assess the skill levels of other individuals via peer evaluation
PieTrust itself is an open project using its own system. If you join us and substantially assist in development, you'll share in any profits that we make. Email us if you'd like to join.
