Yaps Open Protocol

Yaps serve as a public good for recognizing, rewarding, and tracking attention. Fully accessible through our public API endpoint, Yaps allow any builder to access and build on top of tokenized attention permissionlessly.

Since the data went live in December 2024, numerous teams (eg Berachain, Story, Fantasy Top) have already been using it for various use cases, including SocialFi developments, reward distribution, and more.

For teams and developers who are keen to build on top of Yaps and looking for custom integrations, or additional features beyond what is publicly available, please get in touch .
