The Venture Labor OS

Four tiers. Contribution and vouching. No tier for sale.

• Viewer — unauthenticated public. Sees marketing surfaces, open RFPs, published showcase, policies, trust page.
• Prospect — signed up. Can manage own profile, opt in/out of Tier-2 data participation, apply toward Partner status.
• Partner — vetted counterparty. Limited-scope EPK. Discovery-hidden by default; recognition unlocks a discovery window.
• Member — full cooperator. Sees the internal directory, calendar, activity feed. Full MVP score visibility. Co-brand rights. Canonization at year end.

Deliver. Communicate. Route through the platform. Give honest peer review. Respect confidentiality.

Each carries a consequence — compliance penalty, or expulsion per bylaws.

Seven sub-ratings: quality, outcomes, reliability, hustle, collaboration, attendance, referrals + BD. Twelve-month rolling, weighted recent.

Bands: 90+ Champion's Court eligible. 75-89 Promotion eligible. 65-74 Good standing. Below 65 Probation. New Members: provisional until promotion.

Decline surfaces inside a quarter. Recovery works the same.

Each violation: −9 OVR for 90 days, stacking. Three inside 90 days: probation.

Admin-recorded with reason on the audit log. Rescission available, also audit-logged. Arbitration available on disputed penalties.

• Future Modernist of the Month — metric shortlist + admin editorial pick (Phase 1) or Member vote (Phase 2, gated on membership count). Open to Members and Partners. Unlocks a public-discovery window for Partners.
• Constellation of the Year — annual cohort of Members who held Champion's Court standing during the year.
• Champion's Court — top 10% of Members at OVR ≥ 90. Refreshes daily.

Members co-brand with FM. Recognized Partners get a featured window at reduced weight. Full weight is for Members.

Every quote: base and ceiling. Base pays. Ceiling releases on a quality gate.

Gate: client rating ≥ 4/5. Fallback: PM rating (60%) + peer composite (40%) ≥ 4. Reclaimed ceilings feed the Engagement Recovery Pool.

The client never sees the gate. Talent conditioning, not a price lever.

Every cooperative-collected dollar:

• 85% to the contributor pool (talent + admin pool per contract).
• 12% to reserve — subdivides for treasury, LP for the token rail, and cooperative benefits (health fund, sabbatical, etc.).
• 3% to admin operations.

Disclosed on every contract. Members see the split on wallet history in compStage detail. No silent skim.

End of every calendar year, each active Member (plus every Partner who held a recognition that year) mints a canonization card. ERC-721 NFT with an ERC-6551 token- bound account — a wallet for that Member's year.

Tier locks to the year-end rarity band (gray probation, green good standing, blue promotion eligible, magenta Future Modernist, gold-holographic Champion). The card holds $BUILD allocated that year, wrapped recognition NFTs, cooperative artifacts collected, and voting weight from the cohort.

Phygital versions become a marketplace product class — Members buy their own at near-cost; outsiders buy as collectibles at market rate.

Canon starts at zero. First real canonization at the end of the first full calendar year. No retroactive standing.

Covenant, MVP mechanic, recognition rails, compensation, revenue split — all change on Member vote. Posted 30 days before.

Governance weight: the token-weighted balance in each Member's annual canonization TBA. Every change audit-logged with proposal, vote results, effective date.
