Canonicalized with RFC 8785 JCS, signed with the platform key published at /.well-known/manifest-keys.json.
How it works
One pipeline, three checkpoints, one signed artifact at the end.
Every supplier passes identity, employer, and seniority checks before they can record. Their tier (Senior, Staff, or Principal) is shown on every listing — no mixing junior and senior recordings together.
Senior engineers record themselves solving real coding problems — screen, voice, and the final code. Every recording is AI-graded for clarity and soundness before it lands in the catalog.
When you buy, we sign the license with our cryptographic key and publish the signature so anyone can verify it. Your legal team gets a defensible paper trail; your model gets training data with a known origin.
The state of AI training data
Each one closes a familiar shortcut. Together they raise the bar on what a defensible corpus looks like — and on the buyers who can ship one.
Public code scraped from the internet carries lawsuit risk — courts are tightening fair-use limits and you need a defensible source.
AI-generated training data hits a ceiling on hard problems where a real senior engineer's judgment still wins.
Hiring contractors through Mercor or Surge sells engineer hours — but you can't re-license what you bought, and you can't prove where it came from.
What you get
Every recording is by a credential-checked senior engineer — we verify their identity, their employer, and their seniority before they can record. Every license is cryptographically signed by ExpertMint, and the verification key is published publicly so you can prove the chain of custody on day one.
AI coding tools are running out of clean public data to train on. The teams sourcing real engineer reasoning now will lead the next wave.
