How Claiming Works
Claim professionals for free. Earn when real-world events trigger payouts. No upfront cost, ever.
The Basics
Claim a Professional
Pick someone you know in healthcare. It's free to claim — you're staking your professional knowledge that this person will generate value.
Wait for an Event
A real-world event triggers a payout pool. The type of event depends on which claim type you chose.
Share the Payout
All claimers split the payout pool proportionally based on their weight. Higher weight = larger share.
Two Claim Types
The Scenario
You know a talented nurse, physician, or specialist who's great at their job. They'll likely get recruited or change jobs at some point. You earn in two ways.
Revenue Stream 1: Recruiting Report Dividends

Revenue Stream 2: Placement Fee

Example
Sarah (RN) is claimed by 12 people. A hospital buys a recruiting report that includes her — $50 of that report goes into the dividend pool, split among all 12 claimers. Later, Sarah gets hired at a new hospital and the hiring facility pays a $15,000 placement fee — also split among her claimers.
The Scenario
You know a professional with concerning work history, complaints, or patterns. Facilities need this information to make safe hiring decisions.
How Money Flows

Example
Dr. X is claimed by 8 people as High-Risk. A hospital considering hiring them purchases the risk report for $2,500. All 8 claimers split the revenue based on their weight.
Payout Weight Multipliers
Your weight determines your share of the payout pool. Higher weight = bigger piece. All bonuses stack additively. Weights are relative — they only matter compared to other claimers' weights.

Common Questions
Does it cost anything to claim?
No. Claiming is completely free. You're staking your professional knowledge, not money.
What if the person never changes jobs?
For Top Performers: you still earn dividends every time a facility buys a recruiting report that includes them — no job change required. The placement fee (second revenue stream) only triggers when they actually get hired, but recruiting report dividends are recurring regardless. For High-Risk: you earn every time a facility buys a risk report.
Can I claim someone as both Top Performer and High-Risk?
No. Each claim is one type per person. You choose at claim time.
What does "relative weight" mean?
Your weight is only meaningful relative to other claimers. A 1.25x weight means you get 25% more of the pool than a 1.0x claimer. If you're the only claimer, you get 100% regardless of weight.
How does the work email verification bonus work?
When you provide the professional's work email, they receive a verification link. Once they confirm, your claim gets a permanent 1.15x bonus. Only the first claimer to submit a verified email gets this bonus.
Can I unclaim someone?
Yes, but only after your lock-in period ends. The minimum is the Standard tier (no lock). Longer lock-ins earn higher weight but require you to wait before unclaiming.
How big are typical placement fees?
Healthcare placement fees typically range from 15-25% of first-year salary. For a nurse earning $85K, that could be $12,000-$21,000. For a specialist earning $350K, it could be $50,000-$87,000.
