PUBLIC METHODOLOGY

Impact and Reliability

EkoPulse publishes two distinct signals: Impact summarises recorded contributions, and Reliability indicates how much published support the information has. Read both to understand the score.

Formulas, parameters and versions

Impact · model 2.0

How far do the recorded contributions reach?

It weighs each published improvement by its reach for the type of profile, from symbolic to transformative, counts the same work only once and considers relevant relationships. It is a provisional model. Evidence adds no points of direct Impact; it is reflected in Reliability and can influence what a profile passes on to others through the ecosystem. It does not measure tonnes or the net balance, and it is not a certification.

Reliability · model 1.3

How much support is there for the published?

It considers evidence coverage, source identity and independence, corroboration and profile information. The grade and its numeric value summarise that support, not performance. The scale runs from D to A+; with the current data and rules, the highest reachable grade is B+ (84/100).

How to read them

A high impact doesn't replace the evidence. A high reliability also does not mean that the contribution is large. That is why EkoPulse does not combine both values into a third public score.

Limits and Update

  • Only published and visible information is scored for the current model.
  • Some profiles may not have a score yet, may be temporarily unavailable, or may have their scores hidden.
  • Values are recalculated from current data; they are not adjusted for promotion.
