What is Peakd?

Peakd is a community-powered platform where everything gets ranked through real ratings, discussed openly, and compared side-by-side. Think Rotten Tomatoes meets Reddit, but for everything: software, banks, countries, restaurants, universities, and beyond.

Users rate what they have actually tried using 1-10 precision sliders on individual aspects (not rigid 5-star systems), join threaded discussions on every entry, and build reputation through consistent contributions. Rankings are computed purely from trust-weighted community opinion. Companies can never buy a higher position.

Key Features

Per-aspect ratings - Rate Ease of Use, Performance, Value, Design separately. Overall auto-computes.
Head-to-head comparisons - Side-by-side with community scores, specs, and pros/cons
Dynamic leaderboards - Rankings update in real-time as votes come in across 37 categories
Trust-weighted voting - Experienced contributors carry more weight. Prevents manipulation.
Threaded discussions - Upvotable comments on every entity, sorted by Top/Newest
For You discovery - Personalised recommendations based on your interests and past votes
Trending and Peaking - See what is gaining momentum right now with velocity charts
Entity submissions - Anyone can add new entities with rich descriptions, specs, and sources
Edit governance - Wikipedia-style revisions with community approval voting

5 Entity Types

Products - Software, physical goods, food, services. Anything you buy or use.
Companies - Businesses, banks, telecoms, startups. The organisation itself.
Entertainment - Films, TV, games, books, music, podcasts, events.
Venues - Restaurants, hotels, gyms, salons. Physical places you visit.
Institutions - Universities, charities, governments, NGOs.

Core Principles

Rankings can never be bought - Your rank is earned purely through community opinion. Paying customers get visibility tools and analytics, never a higher position.
No gatekeeping - Rankings are visible to everyone. No login walls, no popups, no pay-to-view.
Anti-fraud - Trust scores, device fingerprinting, vote velocity detection, account age weighting.
Community-first - Users never pay. All revenue from companies wanting analytics and visibility.
