Questions
Is it free?
Yes. Paths, outcomes, proofs, verification and your Trophy Case are free. The paid Arena, doing this Portfolio with a group and weekly challenges, costs $5 or $12 a month depending on your country. Cancel anytime.
Who confirms my work?
People who saw it: a teacher, a client, a coach, a manager or a teammate. Some milestones are checked automatically first, against GitHub, a live site, a Google Doc or an official rating, once you link the account. Every confirmation is signed with a Proof Seal.
Can you check my revenue automatically?
Not yet. Revenue checks need a payments connection that is switched off today, so revenue milestones are confirmed by people who saw the numbers.
Who can see my work?
You choose. Adults can make their Trophy Case public. Trophy Cases of anyone under 18 are private by default and never get a public link. Clinical health proofs are always private.
Do I keep my proofs?
Yes. They belong to you and stay on your Trophy Case, with a seal anyone can check.

More detail
Founder gathers the paths from idea to first customers to scale. Each milestone is confirmed by a customer, mentor or partner who saw it. The Powstik Incubator in Varsity takes you through building a company step by step.
What is the Founder Portfolio?
The Founder Portfolio gathers the Powstik paths and outcomes that fit that goal. You do real work, get it checked, and share one link.
Who is it for?
It is for people who want to build a Founder record with real work. You pick the paths and outcomes that fit your goal.
What costs money?
Arena, the paid plan with teams and a league, has a monthly price shown on the Join button. Paths, proofs, checks and your Portfolio link have no charge.
How does verification work?
A real person who knows your work signs in and checks each proof. You can never check your own proof. Paying for Arena never skips this check.
