Can't you build workflows for auto addition? This way, your platform would have exponential more content and therefore interest

- if more than x ppl searching for a person then add

- if more than x followers on twitter

- if more than x citations on google scholar

You get the point.

Our service is not entirely scalable yet, as there is still quite a bit of manual work being done behind the curtain.

But the other larger concern is that many large accounts don’t necessarily post much original content. Or rather noisy content. Or they’re an organization, and not a person.

We want to do quality control over who gets indexed, at least initially.

We do a bit of the first 2. The third we never considered.

That's a great idea.
