Identity and profile trust
Verification state should help users distinguish confirmed information from self-declared profile content. Production verification rules will define exactly what each trust signal means.
Client and payment trust
Client profiles can present useful marketplace history and payment-verification state once those systems are live. Trust indicators will not replace careful evaluation of the actual project.
Marketplace integrity
Reporting, moderation, audit trails and administrative review are planned as core platform capabilities for handling abuse, fraud and policy violations.
Privacy and security
AREATO's initial direction is privacy by default, limited tracking and security controls appropriate to account and marketplace data.
