ENSO LAB · BOUNTYCLEARANCE · OPEN CALLEMBARGO · 90 DAYS

Found a glowing crack in a platform's wall?
We'll pay you for it.

enso is a growth lab. We study the seams where attention leaks out of the platforms - Reddit, LinkedIn, Craigslist, Wikipedia, YouTube. If you've noticed a repeatable loophole nobody's exploiting yet, report it here. Cash payouts from $250 for a solid rumor up to $2,500+ for a full playbook.

§01 · Payout tiers

Four tiers. Cash on verification.

We grade every submission against reproducibility. The bar rises with the payout; the payout rises with what you've actually proven.

Rumor
$250
Anecdote, screenshot, or a hunch

Interesting but unverified. Points us in a direction we hadn't looked.

Signal
$750
A working example we can reproduce once

Reproducible on a single account; results are directional but real.

Proof
$1,500
Multi-account or multi-week data with numbers

Effect holds across accounts or time. Statistically defensible.

Loophole
$2,500+
Repeatable playbook the platform hasn't closed

A castle-crack we can turn into a lab research. Uncapped upside on impact.

Loophole-tier findings that materially move a client campaign may earn stacked bonuses. We'll say so in writing before you agree.

§02 · How it works

Five steps. No mystery.

  1. 01
    Submit

    Drop your one-liner, evidence, and how we can reproduce it.

    Triage

    We reply within 3 business days with a tier read or clarifying questions.

  3. 03
    Verify

    We reproduce end-to-end on our own accounts. You may be looped in for gaps.

    Pay

    Verified finding → payout via wire, Wise, or PayPal within 10 business days.

    90-day exclusive embargo. Then we ship the research, credit you if you want it.

§03 · The rules

What counts, what doesn't.

In scope

  • Distribution loopholes on Reddit, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, Craigslist, Wikipedia, Discord, Slack, forum platforms.
  • Attention-arbitrage on newsletter, podcast, or search ecosystems.
  • Ranking, recommendation, or notification quirks with a clear reproduction path.
  • Novel outbound / community / partnership plays we haven't published yet.

Out of scope

  • Anything that requires breaking a platform's Terms of Service, spamming, or bots pretending to be humans.
  • Well-documented tactics already covered by our blog, agentic-labs, or a top-10 Google result.
  • Paid-ad account-structure tricks. Different discipline.
  • Security vulnerabilities. Report those to the platform's actual bug bounty.

Exclusivity. If we accept a submission, you agree to a 90-day exclusive embargo before publishing it elsewhere. We'll credit you by name (or keep you anonymous) when we publish the research.

IP. You keep your name attached to the discovery. enso gets the right to use, publish, and adapt the finding in our lab work and client campaigns.

Duplicates. First verifiable submission wins. If two land within 48 hours, we split the payout.

§04 · Submit

Tell us what you found.

The more you can help us reproduce it, the higher the tier - and the faster we can pay you.

§05 · FAQ

Questions we've been asked.

Who's paying?
enso. We fund this out of our own R&D budget because a good loophole is cheaper than a month of paid ads.
How do you actually pay?
Wire, Wise, or PayPal. We'll ask for your preference after we verify. Payouts land within 10 business days of verification.
Can I stay anonymous?
Yes. Tell us in the submission and we'll ship the research without your name.
What if you already knew about it?
If it's already on our roadmap or published, we'll say so and there's no payout. We'll always be honest about it.
I have a bunch. Can I submit more than one?
Please do. One submission per loophole so we can triage cleanly.

Not sure it counts? Read our field notes and the lab researches to calibrate. Then submit anyway - we'd rather see a rumor than miss a loophole.
