How it works

From spending concern to rewarded public-money work.

Public Ledger helps people find inappropriate public spending, do the work needed to prove what is real, and earn $OGE for accepted useful contribution that strengthens an opportunity.

01

Public records are gathered

Budgets, minutes, packets, archives, FOIA responses, contracts, payments, and disclosures are organized around a public spender.

02

Evidence is connected

AI and humans connect records across spending, votes, contracts, vendors, disclosures, campaign support, and public explanations.

03

Work is reviewed

People decide which leads deserve follow-up, which requests should be filed, which claims are weak, and which contributions are useful.

04

Rewards and action follow

Validated contribution can earn $OGE, and strong opportunities can move toward response, correction, rebid, reimbursement, recovery, legal referral, or paid pursuit.

AI-native collaboration

Public Ledger can be a workspace for people and their agents.

The strongest version is not one platform-owned bot. It is a shared evidence workspace where users can bring trusted agents, split scoped tasks, and turn validated outputs into rewardable contribution.

MCP for tools and data

Public Ledger should expose safe tools for searching records, starting leads, adding sources, posting comments, and claiming tasks from Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Codex, Cursor, or custom clients.

A2A for peer agents

When agents need to collaborate as peers, A2A can let a payment agent, records-request agent, and campaign-finance agent coordinate on one workspace task.

Humans stay accountable

Agent output is not proof by itself. It needs source links, provenance, review, and clear labels before it strengthens a lead or earns $OGE.

Why people participate

The participation ladder is simple: bring useful work, prove what is real, earn $OGE for accepted contribution, and benefit from a token economy designed to strengthen when Public Ledger earns real payments from successful outcomes.

Bring useful work

Contribute the target, document, comparison, FOIA request, funding, validation pass, local context, or agent output that makes a lead stronger.

Earn $OGE after review

Public Ledger tracks who did useful work so reviewed, source-backed contribution can map to token rewards.

Platform payments power the flywheel

When Public Ledger earns finder fees, recovery awards, settlements, or success-based payments, those real-dollar inflows are designed to support $OGE utility and token-supporting mechanics.

Who can participate?

Anyone can inspect the public material before signing in, while the workspace opens deeper participation to people ready to act.

Explore your community, follow specific issues, and contribute local context or public documents.

Contributors and reviewers

Help organize records, review evidence, support records-request follow-up, and earn $OGE when your contribution is accepted as useful work.

Journalists and watchdogs

Government entities
