Frequently asked questions

How do I earn badges?

Badges are earned automatically as you use BuildVoyage. Post milestones, add stack items, and maintain streaks to unlock achievements.

What counts for a streak?

Any milestone posted counts toward your streak. Miss a day and your streak resets, but you keep all earned badges.

Can I lose badges?

No, once earned, badges are permanent. They're milestones in your maker journey that you'll always have.

How is momentum calculated?

Momentum combines your current streak, total badges earned, and recent activity into a score that determines your visibility.

Do badges affect product ranking?

No, product discovery is based on stack and cheers. Badges celebrate maker achievements, not product success.

When do badges appear?

Badges appear instantly when earned. They show on your profile and in the Makers with Momentum section.
