Harbor Cohort 1 Applications Are Open

Harbor Cohort 1 is a 1–2 week production pilot for a small group of SCPT community contributors who will complete live missions, receive USD compensation, and give structured feedback before Harbor’s broader rollout later this month.

This is the follow-through on Harbor’s app-readiness update: an operational release with real missions, acceptance criteria, and Passport signals—not a closed demo for optics.

Why this pilot matters

Cohort 1 is a structured SCPT-first launch designed to validate mission design, payouts, and contributor experience at production quality.

Harbor needs field signal on brief clarity, review loops, and first USD payouts before scaling waves. That is how contributor programmes become durable infrastructure instead of one-off campaigns.

Eligibility criteria

Applicants must meet all of the following:

Minimum 100,000 SCPT in a connected wallet
Availability to complete assigned missions during the 1–2 week pilot window
Willingness to provide structured feedback on mission quality and product experience

Application volume may exceed seats. Priority goes to complete, truthful submissions that match the programme brief.

What Cohort 1 participants receive

Selected contributors receive:

Among the first USD payouts through Harbor
Elevated compensation rates for future missions
Priority access to highest-value missions in the initial release
Founding Contributor designation on Harbor Passport
Enhanced payout tier during the programme
Direct input into the product roadmap via structured feedback

These benefits reward early operators who harden quality—not engagement farming.

The operating standard we are building

Harbor programmes emphasize clear mission briefs, verified submissions, and compensation tied to real work.

Every accepted Cohort 1 submission should leave provenance and Passport signal that later cohorts and buyers can trust during diligence.

Not in Cohort 1? You are still part of the rollout

Harbor is expanding in waves. Submit the same form to join the waitlist for upcoming cohorts.

Pilot improvements—cleaner briefs, faster review, clearer payout milestones—benefit the full platform, including applicants who start in later waves.

What comes next

Harbor built this cycle for durability across contributors, data quality, and AI teams training production systems.

Cohort 1 is where that work meets the field. Apply here: https://forms.gle/jLTw5DNB5iXob7B18
