Everything visitors, contributors, and projects need to understand POI.

This page goes deeper into what Proof of Impact does, how campaigns are structured, how scoring and payouts work, what protections exist, and why POI is useful for the broader ecosystem.

What is POI?

Proof of Impact is a campaign platform that tracks, ranks, and rewards community promotion.

POI connects a participant's wallet to their X account, tracks qualifying campaign-related posts, measures the engagement those posts receive, and rewards top contributors on-chain in the project's token.

In simple terms, POI shows who actually helped a project grow and gives projects a way to recognize that effort with visible rankings and real rewards.

Problem

Community promoters often create real momentum, but their work is usually not tracked well and often goes unrewarded.

Solution

POI makes that work visible, measurable, trackable, and rewardable through campaign rules and public rankings.

Outcome

Projects get proof of community support, and contributors get a fairer path to recognition and rewards.

How campaigns work

Projects create campaigns with clear rules and a real reward pool.

01 Create the campaign

The project creator connects a Solana wallet and X account, then sets the campaign name, description, keywords, dates, scoring rules, payout structure, and winner count.

02 Fund the initial pool

The creator funds the initial reward pool in the project's token. Anyone can add more to the pool later.

03 Track activity live

Once the campaign begins, POI monitors X for posts matching the campaign keywords and tracks the engagement those posts receive.

04 Lock rankings and pay

When the campaign ends, POI takes a final snapshot, locks the leaderboard, calculates winners, and sends rewards on-chain.

Keywords Campaign-related keywords tell POI what to track on X.

Timeline Tracking starts at the campaign start time and ends at the campaign close.

Scoring Each campaign can define how different engagement types are weighted.

Winners The creator chooses how many top contributors are eligible for rewards.

Payouts and reward pools

Rewards are backed by a real campaign pool in the project's token.

Initial funding

The creator starts the campaign with the initial pool.

Pool growth

Additional supporters can add more tokens to the pool after launch.

Distribution options

Projects can choose linear, flat, or custom payout splits based on rank.

Settlement

Rewards move on-chain from the campaign vault to winners' wallets.

Linear Higher ranks receive more, with rewards decreasing gradually by position.

Flat Every winner receives the same amount.

Custom The creator sets exact percentages for each rank.

If nobody qualifies for rewards, the reward pool is refunded to the original funders.

Scoring and anti-abuse

Scoring is simple enough to understand and designed to become harder to exploit over time.

Campaign creators can customize these values, but POI's default structure keeps the system easy to follow.

Diminishing returns

After a certain number of repeated actions in one day, each additional action becomes less valuable.

Daily point cap

Each user can only earn up to a maximum number of points per day.

Additional protection in development

More systems are being worked on to better detect spam, low-quality engagement, and attempts to game campaigns.

Visible rules

Participants can see how campaigns are structured instead of relying on hidden scoring logic.

Validation and transparency

POI is built around public proof.

On-chain proof

Every payout and refund is recorded as a Solana transaction that can be verified publicly.

Fixed campaign rules

Reward pool size, payout mode, winner count, and scoring setup are defined when the campaign is created.

Live leaderboard

Scores and rankings are visible throughout the campaign instead of being hidden until the end.

Post-level attribution

Tracked activity is tied to contributor accounts so results come from real campaign participation.

Why the wider community benefits

POI helps surface the hardest-working communities.

POI does more than reward individual contributors. It gives people a public way to see which communities are active, engaged, and consistently putting in work.

Community discovery

Visitors can find projects with real supporters and real momentum.

Public reputation

Communities can build a visible reputation for effort, consistency, and impact.

Healthier competition

Projects are encouraged to build stronger communities instead of relying on vague claims or hidden groups.

Visible effort

Work that often stays buried in feeds and chats becomes visible on the website for anyone to see.
