🚧 Founding Era Β· Beta β€” not yet officially launched β€” First 1,000 Expert Solvers earn a permanent Founding badge.
Step 1 of 5 β€” Mode & email

Start your Expert Solver application.

Everyone's an expert at something β€” even the smallest hobby or niche. First, choose how you want to take part. You can stay completely anonymous β€” all it takes is an email and a handle you choose. No phone, no ID.

What you get
  • Stay anonymous from your day-job β€” pseudonym only; real name never required, not even at sign-up.
  • Keep 85% β€” transparent 15% platform fee; you keep 85% of what buyers pay you.
  • Citable authority under your handle β€” buyers find & hire you; your verdicts are on the record.
  • Own your S:IQ credential β€” a portable, verifiable track record under your handle; no expiry.
Anonymous Expert Solver Β· DEFAULT
Your real name is never required. Participate, earn S:IQ, & claim bounties fully under your handle β€” forever, if you want. How it works β†’
Expert Solver (public track record)
Your verified credentials & track record are visible to buyers. Unlocks research-report citations under your handle. Still no legal name published. Start Anonymous & switch later β€” but not back.
AI Safety Evaluator Β· FixAI
Run adversarial evals & red-team AI models for the FixAI Group's independent safety panel. No wallet. Earn per verified finding under your handle.
Letters, numbers, underscores & hyphens only β€” 3–32 characters. This is your pseudonym; your real name is never required. You'll use this handle as your S:IQ identity on every contribution and profile.
Used for email verification & application status only. No marketing.

Pick the topics you’ll solve.

Expert Solvers β€” independent experts who’ve earned their S:IQβ„’ β€” get found by the specialty they own. Pick as many as genuinely apply from hundreds of topics across 16 categories, drill down to get specific, or name your own niche and be its founding Expert Solver. The more specific each one, the more findable you are.

Declare your expertise.

No waiting on approval β€” you're in as soon as you finish. The more specific and verifiable your credentials, the easier buyers can find and trust you. Identity checks only ever happen later, and only if you choose to cash out a bounty.

Be specific β€” vague claims like "expert in tech" won't help buyers find or trust you.
Optional, but recommended β€” live, attributable links (papers, reports, talks, repos) strengthen your public profile so buyers can evaluate you.

Last updated: May 2026

1. Honesty

Submit only claims you have genuine reason to believe are true. Do not submit fabricated, exaggerated, or deliberately misleading Truths. If you are uncertain, mark your submission accordingly.

2. Disclosure

Disclose any material conflict of interest before submitting or voting on a Truth. This includes financial interests, prior relationships with the named brand, and employer affiliations.

3. No coordination

Organizing with other users to influence a verdict outcome β€” in any direction β€” is a permanent ban, immediate forfeiture of all S:IQ, and a named entry in the public Transparency Report. This includes private messaging, off-platform organizing, and token-based voting arrangements.

4. No doxing

Publishing private personal information about any individual β€” including home addresses, phone numbers, family members, or identification documents β€” is a permanent ban and may be reported to law enforcement.

5. Respect

Dispute the claim, not the person. Harassment, hate speech, targeted intimidation, or content that demeans individuals based on protected characteristics will result in account termination.

6. No self-dealing

Do not submit Truths or vote on Truths where you have an undisclosed financial interest in the outcome. This includes short positions, pending contracts, and undisclosed competitive relationships.

7. AI disclosure

If you used AI tools to assist in preparing a submission or Expert Solver response, disclose that in your submission. Transparency about AI assistance is expected; undisclosed AI generation may be flagged by the Trust & Safety team.

8. Reuse of your resolutions

When you resolve a question, ReallySolved may keep, republish, and license that resolution β€” to other users seeking the same answer, and, in de-identified form, to research partners β€” always under your chosen handle, with attribution to you, and never under your legal name. You keep credit (and S:IQ) for work that is reused, and reused resolutions may earn additional recognition or rewards under the program terms then in effect. This is how one verified answer keeps helping people β€” and keeps building your track record β€” long after you write it. Full terms: Terms of Service §6 (Data Ownership & Derived Data).

Enforcement

ReallySolved reserves the right to remove any submission, reduce S:IQ, suspend, or permanently ban accounts that violate this Code of Conduct. Severe violations (coordination, doxing, fraud) are published in the Transparency Report with the pseudonym or public name of the account. Appeals are reviewed by a human administrator within 5 business days.
