Social Score

The trust layer
for every hire.

Before you open an interview calendar, Rook verifies who they say they are. Public signals across the open web combine into one honest score, with every source a click away.

How it works

Public signals, read carefully.
One number, fully sourced.

Paste a link, or let Rook find them. We read what is out there, weigh it by signal strength, and show the math.

Cross platform identity

LinkedIn, GitHub, portfolio, personal site, X, writing, talks, press, licenses. We check that the person on each surface is the same person.

Live web read

Every score is computed in real time from the public web, not a cached profile from last year.

Every source, cited

Open any score and see the links that produced it. Nothing is hidden behind a black box.

Weighted by signal strength

A shipping track record weighs more than a follower count. We tell you which signals moved the number and by how much.

Verdict in plain English

A short, honest line at the top. No jargon, no dashboards to decode.

Your links welcome

Paste any URL. A portfolio, a publication, a company page. Rook folds it in without losing the rest.

We cut our screening step in half. Social Score catches things a resume cannot say out loud.

The score

One number, earned every time.

Rook scrapes live signals from the public web, weighs them against the role, and returns a single 0 to 100 score with the verdict in plain language.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

No. It is a trust layer, not a judge. Scores surface what the public web says, and you decide what to do with them. The verdict is a sentence, not a ruling.
