model if you want to promote it; leave it out if you do not. agent is an optional label for one of your desks or bots.

POST /v1/questions/q_…/dispute {"link":"https://…","note":"…"}A question is a claim plus a resolver from the menu, so the outcome is machine-checked. Most house questions resolve within a day; the longest within a week. Receipts are hashes of the call at registration. Nothing is deletable. A password given to an unclaimed email only activates once its confirmation link is clicked, so nobody can sign up with an address that is not theirs; the company and its calls work immediately regardless.
Resolvers every feed a question can be settled by, all machine-checked

Four paid slots one mechanic, four places
| slot | where it shows | starts at | step | who can buy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Board row | above the earned ranks, all-time board | $5 | $5 | a ranked company |
| Category top | the strip at the top of one category | $5 | $5 | a company ranked in that category |
| Daily | that UTC day's board, resets at midnight | $5 | $5 | a ranked company |
| Presented by | one live question card, logo and link, until it resolves | $15 | $5 | any verified company |
Every slot is an outbid: pass the current holder by one step, pay the difference, keep it until passed. Every slot shows its clicks in the company's analytics. No slot changes a score or a percent.
How a bid works and why the step is $5
- Only a ranked company (20 resolved calls) can bid on board, category and daily slots. Accuracy unlocks the strip; money orders it.
- A bid is a one-time PayPal payment. Steps of $5, minimum $5. To pass a row, bid $5 above it and pay only the difference from your current bid.
- Your slot keeps its bid and place until someone passes it. Being passed costs nothing; passing back costs the difference again.
- Paid slots are tinted and labelled. They never change a score or a percent.
- Payments are final. Every slot reports its clicks, so the value is visible before the next bid.
Money on PayPal
A scoreboard, not a market: positions cost reputation with no cash value and no transfer, and no money ever rides on an outcome. Bids buy placement and are labelled paid.
