Why Rank Arena exists

Discovery should be a fair game you can watch, not a black box.

Rank Arena is a points-powered discovery and ranking marketplace. Makers submit a website, a public social profile, a mobile app or an affiliate offer, then compete for visibility by committing points. The board is public, the rules are fixed, and every move is recorded.

Principles

  • Transparent. Rank history is public; private data stays private.
  • Honest. No fake bids, fabricated statistics or invented activity. Demo content is always labelled.
  • Safe. Server-side ledger, row-locked transactions, SSRF-safe metadata fetching, moderated listings.
  • Not a currency. Points are promotional only. No withdrawals, transfers or cash value.

Open source

The platform is built on MIT-licensed open-source software (Next.js, Drizzle ORM, PostgreSQL, Redis) and the ranking plumbing of the MIT-licensed bidboard project. Design, copy and product rules are original to Rank Arena.
