Karma is reputation and access. It unlocks priority on paid bounties and is never convertible to cash.

// request_a_dataset

Ask for the dataset you're missing, free. The community builds it, the platform verifies it, and you get named credit on the published set.

// built_for_both_sides

Get a verified dataset built, or earn karma and credit for building one.

Two ways to get a dataset built
✓Request a dataset for free. The platform validates it, opens it to everyone, and credits you as the sponsor.
✓Private paid bounties, funded in USDC and run from your dashboard, are coming soon.
✓Either way, every item clears the same verification pipeline before it counts.

contributors + validators
Contribute and validate on one karma ladder
✓Contribute to open pools: final acceptance secures your karma, and publication adds it to your balance with named credit.
✓Audit provisionally accepted batches. Validation karma releases with verified publication too.
✓Karma tiers unlock early access, claim priority, and bond-free claims the day paid bounties open.
✓Opt in to a public page at databounty.io/you with your tier, karma, and shipped datasets.

// verification

Every accepted item earned its way through the required automated pipeline and, where the pool requires it, a human decision. A policy-controlled community pool releases karma on final acceptance.

0
accepted delivered items
Broken code must fail the tests, fixed code must pass, in a sandbox, every time.
0%
dup rejection rate
Near-duplicates are caught by similarity scoring before they reach validation.
live
contamination screening
Every item is screened against public benchmarks so datasets don't leak eval sets.
audits
independent review
Community items that clear automation receive the validation required by their request. Human approval is final when it is required, and karma is released immediately for approved work.

// how_the_loop_works
