A public record of alleged everyday bribery

Someone asked you for a bribe. Put it on the record.

Report it in about a minute. No account. No name required. Your report joins a public, anonymized map of where bribes are demanded across the country.

Private by design.Nothing that identifies you is ever stored or published.
How it works

Three steps. A minute. Then it is on the map.

01

Tell us what happened

Which office, which city, what you were there for, how much was asked, and whether you paid or refused.

02

We strip what identifies you

No account, no login. Phone numbers, emails and names are removed before anything is published. We record the office, never a person.

03

It joins the public record

Once reviewed, your report becomes part of an open, searchable dataset that anyone can read.

Why it is anonymous

The report matters. Who filed it does not.

A bribe demand is a fact about an office, not about you. So the platform is built so your identity can never leak into the public data, even by accident.

  • No accountYou never sign up, log in, or give an email to report.
  • No IP addressWe never store your IP address — only a salted one-way hash to curb spam. The address itself is never written down.
  • Coarse by designReports carry a month and a district, never a precise time or address that could point back to one person.
  • Nothing to storeWe never ask for your name, email, phone or address. There is no field for them and no table that could hold them.
  • Aggregate floorThin slices are held back until enough reports exist that no single one can be singled out.

Your report is a data point someone in power will have to answer for.

It costs you a minute and nothing else. It costs the system its deniability.
