Hi there,
We’re a startup company from Sweden and we are currently building a web-platform where you can share your gaming experiences and accomplishments with other like minded. Think of it as presenting yourself as a gamer, on one page. The same way you have your whole work life written down on a CV or on a platform like LinkedIn, we feel like there should be an easy way to share who you are, your journey and what you’ve achieved in terms of gaming.
We’re at a very early stage of development but right now you can do this by:
• Sharing your favourite games and express why they deserve to be in your top 5.
• Displaying what you're playing right now
• Showing off accomplishments/feats
• Giving a short description of who you are
• Links to your other social platforms
• Links to influencers you recommend people watching
We’re now live with an alpha version of the platform. If you want to check out an actual profile created by a full time streamer and familiar face in the speedrunning community you can do that here:

Here’s another example of how it could look:
https://alpha.rankone.global/feathers
From what we’ve found there’s no good way to quickly introduce yourself to others in terms of what kind of gamer you are. We believe that there’s a place for a platform like this, whether you’re a streamer trying to grow your audience or just someone who wants to be able to display what gaming is to you. We have a lot of other interesting features in store and will continuously add new functions and ways of interacting on the platform.
The feedback/interest in closed testing has been great so far but now we want to reach out to different communities to test on a larger scale to further validate and improve our idea. With that said we would truly appreciate it if you wanted to share your thoughts on what you've seen, the good, the bad, what you're missing and if this is something you would be interested in using.
For a bit more information and to keep up with the progress of this project, we’ve built a temporary page with information here: https://mailchi.mp/1dfdc79609ee/rankone
Thanks for taking your time to read this!
