WHAT? basense is a referral community for the circular economy micro-community - a “Trello for referrals.” Users create a bucket list of products, services, and experiences, share them with the community, and earn rewards for valuable recommendations - turning referrals into trustworthy discovery. HOW? basense works by sharing personal bucket list items with the community, where trust grows with community validation and rewards. Users create and share their lists of products, services, and experiences. The community validates each referral through ratings and feedback, building a trust score over time. High-impact referrals are rewarded, giving everyday users, influencers, and brands a fair upside. As more users join, the cycle strengthens — more referrals → more validation → higher trust → better discovery. WHY? basense is building a platform for and by people. Trust in recommendations is broken as ads, influencers, and AI suggestions are biased and unreliable. basense solves this with authentic, community-validated referrals — giving people trustworthy discovery and rewarding those who share.
