The web, reimagined as a permissionless database.
We capture public web traffic from our data scouts. This public traffic allows
us to build datasets in the Open Data Marketplace that fulfill key enterprise needs.
The web is open but extremely difficult for AI companies to navigate. It’s
cost prohibitive and technically challenging for these organizations to gather

Chakra is building the read layer for the internet. We organize and structure
this data, and you as the end contributor can earn standing on the leaderboard
for the important mission of organizing the world’s structured data.
No - Chakra never collects private data.
Chakra only collects public data and all permissions for data mapping can be configured
explicitly in the setting page of the Extension. We undergo complete security audits
and all data that is captured is anonymized and aggregated.
Download the Extension and browse the web as your normally do. Your “events collected” will start populating as your navigate supported websites.
Bits are rewards for mapping data. They are currently not live, but do stay
tuned for updates on our Twitter / X.
Events are unique pieces of data collected like a tweet or an individual profile.
You can track your events collected on the leaderboard.
To collect events, you must be navigating supported websites.
Today,
this only includes X / Twitter, but over the coming months, we plan to support
a variety of data assets.
