The proof ladder

1
Planned
A cook chose it for a real week.
2
Made
A cook confirms it reached the table.
3
Handoff completed
The ingredient list was deliberately reviewed and used.

These signals launch after accounts and verification are ready. No invented counts appear today.

A useful network, by design

Closer to a recipe commons than a social feed.

Every published idea keeps creator credit and a version history. Practical outcomes will matter more than likes, while clear rights and moderation protect contributors.

Credit and lineage

Creators stay attached to their work, including future adaptations and improvements.

Verified usefulness

Future reputation will reward planned, made, and completed-list signals—not empty clicks.

Human review first

Submissions remain private until originality, clarity, safety, and fit are reviewed.

Fair upside later

Creator rewards can follow reliable attribution and fraud controls, not precede them.

What good looks like

Original, practical, specific.

WorkLife’s own library sets the starting standard: clear quantities, safe directions, accessible groceries, and a believable worknight payoff.
