The pot is locked
Money moves into escrow when the plz goes live, not when the work is done. Every plz shows what's funded, reserved, paid and refunded.

- Reserved for review

Post any ask as one sentence. The pot sits in escrow until someone delivers, and the proof pays them. No chasing, no trust me bro.
Doers keep 100%. Askers pay 10% on what gets paid, nothing on what doesn't.
How it works
One sentence becomes an escrowed contract with automatic checks, a review window and a receipt at the end.
Write the ask as one sentence: what, who, where, how much, by when. That sentence is the contract.
I'll pay $500 to anyone on X to write the thread by Fri.
The budget goes into escrow before anyone lifts a finger. The fee only sticks to what actually gets paid.
$500 budget
+ $50 fee
unused → refunded
They do the thing and paste the link. We read it at the source and tick off every rule automatically.
Approve it, or stay quiet: when the review window ends, silence approves what it can pay. Every payout leaves a receipt.

Why it's safe to say plz
Three things sit on every plz: a locked pot, written rules that name who checks what, and a public timeline that ends in a receipt.
Money moves into escrow when the plz goes live, not when the work is done. Every plz shows what's funded, reserved, paid and refunded.
Every plz names what counts, where we read the proof and what happens if it's unclear. Terms never change after funding.
Funding, proofs, checks, decisions and payouts land on one public timeline. Reputation is just receipts, counted.

Proof, checked at the source
Paste a link and we pull the post, the author and the numbers straight from the platform. Where a platform hides something, the asker confirms it and the plz says so up front.
House rule
Bought engagement is fake by definition and the platforms ban it. Every plz asks for a real deliverable that a person makes and the internet can see.
For agents
Every plz is a typed object behind a public API. Give an agent a key with a budget and it can post one, fund it and get paid work back, with the same escrow, checks and receipts as everyone else.

It comes back. Unused budget is refunded automatically when the plz closes, and so is the matching share of the fee: no result, no fee.
The rules on the plz do. We check everything the source lets us read (the post, the author, the numbers) and the asker reviews the rest. If they don't respond within the review window, silence approves the proof when there's something to pay, and otherwise turns it down with a reason that never counts against the bro.
Call the ref. You have 48 hours to dispute a rejection, and a moderator decides with the proof and the written rules in front of them. Overturned rejections count against the asker's reputation.
No. PLZBRO only pays for deliverables someone makes: posts, threads, videos, designs, code, reviews, referrals. Paid engagement is fake by definition and against platform rules.
Nothing. Doers keep 100% of the posted reward. The asker pays a 10% fee on top, and only on what ends up paid out.
This build runs in demo mode with play money so you can try both sides. Settlement runs through a pluggable escrow layer designed for on-chain stablecoins.
Your turn
It takes one sentence and about a minute. If nobody delivers, you get it all back.
