Help build the most trusted cert prep on the internet.
ReadRoost ships AI-generated cert prep at high velocity. The credibility layer comes from credential-holders like you — verified humans who review questions for the certs you hold, in exchange for status, recognition, and access perks.
· Why review ·
What you get out of reviewing
01
Status that's earned, not bought
Bronze → Silver → Gold → Platinum gradient name treatment that appears wherever your name shows up. The visual is recognised at a glance — Discord Nitro for cert nerds, but with proof.
02
Real coin payouts
Five coins per verdict, fifty when you catch a real error, ten bonus on each honeypot you nail. Coin balance flows into your main ReadRoost wallet for pack unlocks and Gauntlet entries.
03
Free All Access at Gold
Hit Gold tier and your All Access subscription is comped while you stay active (10 reviews per month). Platinum unlocks comped Lifetime Access plus your name credited on packs you helped verify.
04
Contribute to the community
Every verdict raises the trust signal on packs that other learners stake their exam prep on. The pack-level review badge is a buy signal — your reviews are the reason it lights up.
· Credentials ·
Earn permanent, public credentials
Hitting reviewer milestones earns you ReadRoost-issued credentials with a public verification page, an OpenGraph card for social previews, a downloadable PDF certificate, and one-click LinkedIn add-to-profile. Each credential has a stable RR-prefixed ID and stays verifiable as long as your status is active.
Founding Reviewer
First 20 reviewers, ever
Awarded once on application approval to the first 20 reviewers ReadRoost ever ratifies. Hard cap — we will not issue a 21st.
Tier credentials
Bronze · Silver · Gold · Platinum
One per tier you reach — cumulative. Bronze stays even after you cross into Silver. Each tier credential reports your accuracy + total reviews at the moment of mint.
Pack Verifier
Per-pack recognition
When a pack hits 50% human-verified, every reviewer who personally validated ≥25% of its questions earns a Pack Verifier credential — exam code in the title, your contribution percentage on the public page.
Founding Verifier
First reviewer per pack
Exactly one per pack. The reviewer with the earliest verified verdict on a pack that crosses threshold gets credited as the Founding Verifier. Atomic — no ties, no duplicates.

· FAQ ·
Things people ask before they apply
- How long does verification take?
- Manual review within 48 hours during the MVP phase. Submit a Credly badge URL, vendor verification page link, LinkedIn cert URL, or a photo of your physical certificate, and a ReadRoost admin will check the name matches your account and approve per-credential.
- Can I review certs I don't personally hold?
- No. Approval is per-credential. A CISSP holder is approved to review CISSP questions, not CCNA. You can submit multiple credentials in one application if you hold them all.
- What happens if I get a verdict wrong?
- A verdict is 'scored' when a second reviewer reaches consensus or when it is a honeypot. Disagreements drop your accuracy score; honeypots below 90% drop your tier perks; below 80% triggers automatic suspension pending review. Probation reviewers must hit 95%+ on their first 50 reviews.
- What's a honeypot?
- A test question with a known correct (or known wrong) answer, mixed into your review session at a rate of about one per twenty. You can't tell honeypots from real questions by looking — that's the point. They keep the review pool honest.
- Do my Gold/Platinum perks expire if I stop reviewing?
- Tier itself is permanent once earned. The reward perks (free All Access, Lifetime) pause if your monthly review count drops below 10. Resume reviewing and they switch back on. Your tier visual stays on your name regardless.
- What if I'm caught using AI to verify questions?
- It's in the code of conduct: no AI tools. The review program exists because human credential-holders have judgement that LLMs don't. Reviewers caught using AI are revoked permanently — both the visual and the perks.
