Collections require 25 votes before they are unlocked. This is because we need a critical density of Inspect users from a given collection before the data is high enough quality. To vote to unlock a collection, you just need to:

1. Download the Inspect Chrome Extension
2. Go to the collections official X profile.
3. Click the "Vote to Unlock" button next to the follow button.

See an example in this tweet.

Not seeing a vote to unlock button on your collections Twitter profile? This could be for a couple reasons.

1. It’s not in our database - You can see whether we have a collection in our DB by searching for it at the top of the page. If we do not have the collection, you can check out our guidelines for adding new collections here.
2. We don't know the official X profile - We pull official X accounts from the marketplaces. If the collection did not add their X to a marketplace, then we won't have it. You can let us know in Discord or via X DMs and we will get it added.
3. Your X is using a different language - The way we add the "Vote to Unlock" button is by finding the "Follow" button on the page and adding it alongside. We only support a small list of languages. If your X is in a language we do not support, you will just need to switch to English temporarily to vote, then you can switch back. We'll do our best to add more languages as time goes on.

Lastly, you can also always vote by finding an NFT from the collection on X and opening the NFT popup. You will see a "community" section with a "vote to unlock" link.

Our system automatically adds most Ethereum and Solana collections that reach a significant amount of volume. If you would like us to add a collection that we do not currently have, please take the following steps:

Due to the massive amount of interest and effort required, at our discretion we may charge a $100 one-time setup fee payable in ETH or SOL.

There are a couple reasons why we may fail to identify an NFT:

1. It’s not in our database - Right now, we’re only picking up collections that have a certain amount of volume. We’ll lower these thresholds and expand over time – but if you find a collection we do not have suggest it here.
2. It's modified - We’re only picking up exact or near exact matches. If a new background, some sunglasses, or a signature was added, we won’t be able to pick it up. If this is the case, you can submit the miss via our miss tool and we will fix it ASAP.

Not if you’re trying to limit your screen time! Otherwise, yes! The Inspect extension doesn’t require wallet connect, it can’t view or change anything within your wallet, it can’t know any information beyond the NFTs you see on Twitter.

All Chrome extensions go through a Chrome Store review and audit to check for security exploitations before being approved. As always though, don’t take it from us! For those who can, we highly encourage you to poke around the extension front facing code - Let us know if you find ways to improve!

1. First, make sure you are on x.com and using Chrome or a Chrome-compatible browser (like Brave) on desktop, Inspect does not work with mobile today.
2. Next, go to the Chrome Store and make sure it is downloaded. You should see a big blue button that reads "Remove From Chrome" if the extension has been installed.
3. If you already had X open when you installed, you will need to refresh the page "ctrl+r".
4. If it is still not working, this could be because you are on a work device which has restrictive extension permissions. Either case, feel free to reach out on Discord and we will do our best to help.

When you connect to X for the community feature, you will see that we request the ability to follow/unfollow and stay connected.

The follow/unfollow is to support the follow/unfollow buttons displayed once you unlock the community page. Despite the screen appearing on the X app these requests happen on your behalf through Inspect. We will NEVER follow/unfollow without your permission.

The "stay connected" permission is there to avoid having to sign in every 2 hours. Your keys are stored, encrypted, in a cookie you control. We physically cannot access the tokens to do something without your explicit actions (and don't want to).

We use an approach called Jaccard Distance. This measures the overlap between two finite sets of traits. The higher the overlap, the lower the Jaccard distance, the less rare. By understanding the similarities across all the NFTs in a collection, we can gauge how rare an NFT is.

This means that our rarity calculation will sometimes differ from the rarity ranking provided by the official project - if they have it. For some collections, this works super well and is spot on. For other collections with a lot of traits, each NFT may seem more rare than it is, and Jaccard Distance will not be super accurate. We’re still tweaking this!
