what's Braintrust?

Braintrust is the first decentralized talent network that connects skilled, vetted knowledge workers with the world's most reputable brands. The community owns and governs the platform, ensuring it serves user needs rather than centralized corporations. Unlike traditional marketplaces that charge high fees, Braintrust enables talent to keep 100% of their earnings while allowing clients to allocate budgets more efficiently by removing intermediaries. The BTRST token is an ERC-20 governance token on Ethereum, used for voting on network proposals, staking, and incentives. Token holders influence platform expansion, fees, dispute resolution, and rules through on-chain governance. This aligns incentives among users, fostering a fair and scalable Web3 freelance ecosystem.

BTRST generated $3.0M in revenue during 2025.
