Trust Tier

Definition

A progression level that reflects how much verified evidence backs your skill claims. Tiers range from Newcomer (minimal evidence) to Authority (extensive, consistent peer verification).

Why it matters

Not all skill claims carry equal weight. Trust tiers give employers and peers a quick signal of how deeply verified someone's abilities are, without requiring them to inspect every session.

How Lemma uses this

As you complete peer sessions on Lemma, your trust tier advances automatically based on evidence volume, consistency, and recency. Each tier unlocks new opportunities within the platform.
