Most people will never reach the person who could change everything for them.
Not because they don't know who it is. because there's no system that makes that conversation happen. cold DMs die in inboxes.
warm intros go to people who already have them. and the most important message you'll ever send sits there unread, unanswered, forgotten. we built Kōru to fix that.
𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗞ō𝗿𝘂?
A Web3 attention marketplace. you pay to send a message to someone whose time has real value.
The payment locks in a smart contract, not with them, not with us. they reply within the window, they earn it. they don't, you get every cent back. automatically. on-chain. no ghosting. just outcomes.
𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆'𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝗞ō𝗿𝘂 𝘆𝗲𝘁?
that's where the Summon comes in. a Summon is a public pledge. you're not sending a message into the void, you're stating,publicly: "I'd pay X amount for a conversation with this person."
no money changes hands yet. it's a signal, not a payment. and other people who want the same conversation can back it.
The demand stacks. it becomes visible. financially weighted. 40 people. $5,000. all wanting one conversation. that's not a cold DM anymore.
that's proof of market.

1. go to https://t.co/UXFupGsjld, sign in with X
2. open the Summons tab → Create Summon
3. search for them by name or X handle
4. choose your topic tags
5. set your pledge — what you'd genuinely pay
6. write one line on why you want to connect
7. submit. it goes live instantly.
three minutes. and it sends a signal a cold DM never could.

Before they commit to anything before they even join they see real demand. a number. backers. context. not a notification from a stranger. proof the market values their time.
𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐣𝐨𝐢𝐧
Every backer engages through escrow.
payment locks. they reply, funds release.
they don't, you get full refund.
on-chain. instant. no risk, either way.
Access has always rewarded proximity over merit. The Summons Protocol dismantles that.
Anyone can create one. anyone can back one.
A first-generation builder with no network has the same shot as someone with every warm intro in the world.
That's what fair access looks like.

Most platforms ask you to build an audience.
Kōru asks you to do one thing: show up for one conversation.
if you have expertise people want, here’s exactly how hosting works and how you get paid for the knowledge you’ve been giving away for free.
step 1. Create your listing
setting up takes minutes.
→ define your expertise: pick the categories and tags for what you actually help with
→ set your pricing: choose your rate per message or per session whatever reflects the value of your time
→ configure availability: define your weekly slots, durations, and pricing for each
→ write your description: tell Seekers exactly what to expect from you
your knowledge. your rate. your terms.
step 2. Accepts requests
when someone wants your time, you get the full picture before you commit:
→ who they are their profile and social proof
→ what they’re actually asking
→ what they’re paying
→ the time slot they’re proposing
you accept the ones that fit. you decline the rest with no penalty, ever.
and when you decline, the Seeker is refunded in full. automatically. nobody loses.
step 3. Deliver value
show up. engage with the ask. help.
that’s the whole job.
and every real response builds something: the platform tracks your response times, your completion rates, your ratings. your reputation compounds and better, higher-quality requests follow.
the more you show up, the more the system works for you.
step 4. Earn
payment releases automatically once the conversation completes.
→ no invoicing
→ no chasing payment
→ no processing delays beyond blockchain confirmation
→ clean, predictable earnings with a full transaction history
withdraw to your connected wallet anytime.
here’s the thing nobody tells experts:
you’ve been answering DMs for free for years. ignoring most. feeling guilty about the rest. with no system to tell the serious asks from the noise and no compensation for the time you do give.
Kōru fixes all of it.
the serious people reach you. they pay fairly for your time. you respond on your terms. everyone walks away with something real.
your time has always had value.
now it has a system.
