ABOUT
Record the reality of your work.
Track Record is a social network in the form of
credibility infrastructure.
WHY WE EXIST
Why Track Record is needed
“In an era when only failures get cut and quoted,
another kind of record.”
Articles that exploit people's negatives flood the web, and exaggerated praise circulates. The more someone challenges themselves, the more they get consumed by headlines of failure.
In such an era, we need to once again create a place where the **facts of being in motion** can be preserved.
We record the first step taken into uncertainty, with the full context of that moment. Before the failure gets cut and quoted, the reasoning behind the decision becomes visible. Someone's challenge becomes the back of someone who will start tomorrow.
We want to change the world so that challenge starts more naturally. That's why Track Record was born.
WHAT WE COLLECT
What we collect is unfinished decision-making in progress
While most social networks primarily collect emotional reactions and consumption behavior, Track Record handles **unfinished decision-making in progress**.
What you set as goal, which hypothesis you chose, where you misjudged, and how you adjusted course. This continuous record has far higher information density than results or titles.
“Not the result that came after, but what you decided
under the pressure of that moment — that you can show to those who come after you.”
WHY IT'S DIFFERENT
Other networks: the past. Track Record: the future.
Most social and professional networks are places to display a **finished past**. Career, titles, self-declared skills.
Track Record is a place to record an **in-progress future**. The declaration of challenge, the journey, the failures, the reasons for adjustment. The protagonist isn't the result, but the raw decisions made in uncertainty.
“Rather than hearing decorated retrospectives from successful people, the raw truth is etched here.”
DESIGN PRINCIPLES
5 principles we won't break
Every product decision follows these principles. Even if we lose short-term engagement, we don't deviate from these.
- 01
No self-evaluation
We don't provide a self-introduction field or self-declared skills. Profiles consist only of others' testimonials and the facts of public activity.
- 02
No negative ratings
No star ratings, downvotes, or thumbs-down buttons. We don't build the justification of negativity into our structure.
- 03
We don't pretend to be fair
Testimonials can be subjective. Performing neutrality is often a lie in itself.
- 04
No platform sovereignty
The platform doesn't dictate direction. We don't sell rankings, recommendations, or norms — we keep recording truth.
- 05
Gamification comes later
Tokens and titles come after the social network is established. The first design is only for quietly recording.
THREE MECHANISMS
3 mechanisms weave trust
Records alone don't become credibility. Track Record converts behavioral facts into trust through three independent mechanisms.
OSINTO
— Profile from the outsideNot self-declared by you, but generated by AI from public information facts. The only thing you can do is exclude with "this isn't me."
Testimonials
— StoriesRecords only people who actually worked with you in the same project can write about you. Not pretending neutrality, but in the writer's subjective view. Who told is also recorded.
Sugoi
— Brilliant momentsOther participants pin important moments from project chats by range-selection. Both the proposer and the noticer are recorded.
WHY IT WORKS
Designing a place with no fraudsters
Most social networks delegate the work of "finding trustworthy people" to users. Track Record creates **a place with only trustworthy people** by design.
Real-name KYC, profiles generated only from outside perspectives, testimonials from multiple people, recorded causality. Creating fake achievements requires accomplices. Accomplices also stake their own real names.
* Real-name KYC is planned for Phase 2. During the beta, we use invitation-based onboarding and email verification.
“The cost of fraud exceeds the benefit of fraud.”

remain.
