Zero Agenda Pressure
Companies cannot force meetings on you during a first introduction. The initial outreach is always a clean, transparent introduction. No unsolicited time slots, no pressure.
How it works
Proof of Work, explained
Merged Shield™
Merged Shield™, Absolute Control Over Your Time & Privacy
At Merged, we believe top-tier developers shouldn't be interrupted by sales fluff or intrusive calendar links. That's why our platform is built on a simple core principle: you are in total control.
Your Channels, Your Rules
You decide how companies can reach you. Set your preferences (whether it's Google Meet / Video, a Phone call, or On-site coffee). Companies will only ever see the options you explicitly approve.
Gated Scheduling
Calendar proposals and time slots remain strictly locked until you say so. Only when you consciously choose 'Accept & Chat' does the scheduling module unlock, establishing a peer-to-peer conversation on your terms.
No spam. No recruiters pulling at your time. Just direct connections on your conditions.
Merged Network turns publicly available technical activity into useful professional context — nothing more.
01Public data only
What we read from your engineering sources
When a developer connects a source, we read public metadata only. GitHub and GitLab: public repositories, primary languages, topics, stars and public contribution activity. WakaTime: aggregated coding time per language. Stack Overflow: reputation, badges and top answer tags. npm and PyPI: published packages and monthly downloads. Together that becomes their Proof of Work profile.
02Data ethics
What we never touch
We only analyze publicly available technical data. We never expose private repositories or private code without explicit authorization. No source code is stored, resold or shared, and developers control what appears on their public profile at any time.
03Matching
Evidence-based matching
There are no arbitrary developer scores and no opaque match percentages. When a profile appears for a search, we show the evidence behind it — for example: matches required stack, 8 public Python repositories. You judge the work yourself.
04Signal processing
How activity becomes useful context
Repository languages, topics, recency and public contribution patterns are normalized into readable technical signals. We preserve the underlying evidence so every claim can be inspected instead of reducing a person to a rank.
A professional identity backed by real work
Projects, technologies and contributions come together in one credible professional profile.
