What is Karat?

A safety check for tokens on Robinhood Chain. We simulate selling one before you buy it, and show you every step of the reasoning.

Most screeners answer the question what is this token doing right now. Karat answers the one that decides whether a bad buy costs you some money or all of it: can you sell it again. Not predicted — tested, by running the sell against the live chain before you put anything in.

That test is the part to trust. If the sell reverts, the token is a honeypot and there is nothing to interpret. And if the test could not run at all, Karat says so rather than treating an untested token as a safe one.

The output is a single Graduation Score from 0 to 100. It decomposes into five weighted sub-signals, and every screen that shows the number also shows the decomposition. A score with no visible reason is the thing this product exists to replace.

One number, two postures

The same dataset supports two different ways of using it, and most people will use both:

  • Defensive. Do not get rugged. The contract scanner simulates a real buy and a real sell against current state; if the sell reverts, the token is a honeypot and the score is capped regardless of everything else.
  • Offensive. Be where the wallets that were early on survivors are now. That is the Smart Money Tracker, and it is the part people actually pay for — avoiding losses is table stakes, being early is not.

What is being measured

Six modules feed the score and the screens around it. Four of them get people through the door and keep them trusting the number. Two of them — deployer history and the smart money list — are datasets that compound with time, which is why they behave differently from the rest:

  1. Contract Scanner — simulated, not read
  2. Deployer X-Ray — history and traced funding origin
  3. Bundle & Sniper Map — who really holds the supply
  4. Holder Health — concentration in motion
  5. Smart Money Tracker — survivor wallets, live
  6. Stock-pair Native — vault accumulation and burn rate

Each is described in The six modules.

What this build is

One screen is real: the Contract Scanner simulates an actual buy and sell against live chain state, and is marked as such. Everything else in this build is invented — tokens, scores, wallets, deployers, prices. No indexer is connected behind those screens, and no wallet connection or transaction is implemented anywhere.

The data shapes are written the way a real indexer would emit them, so the screens can be pointed at a live pipeline without being rebuilt.
