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've 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.

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. Advertising and rankings are completely separate systems.
- No gatekeeping — Rankings are visible to everyone. No login walls, no popups, no pay-to-view.
- Anonymous voting — Verified users, but votes are anonymous publicly.
- 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.
