Data Policy & Methodology

ZHCs.AI ranks the Zero-Human Company stack by real traction, revenue, and capital efficiency. This page explains what we include, what we exclude, and how key metrics are calculated.

Core Principles

Official-token first

Only project-confirmed official tokens are used for market cap and valuation multiples.

Core Principles

Revenue over hype

P/S is only meaningful when revenue comes from a public dashboard, protocol-fee page, or official disclosure.

Core Principles

Source over certainty theater

Unverified or incomplete data is marked clearly instead of being forced into rankings.

Metric Rules

Market cap
Pulled from DexScreener every 15 minutes when the pair matches the official Base contract address as the base asset.
24h change
Pulled with token market data and treated as context, not the primary ranking signal.
Holder count
Maintained from verified token contract pages or official market sources when available. It is slower-moving and not high-frequency.
Cumulative revenue
Uses public dashboards, Bankr, DefiLlama, TrustMRR-style pages, or official project disclosures when available.
Annualized revenue
Calculated as cumulative revenue divided by active revenue days, then multiplied by 365.
P/S
Calculated as current market cap divided by rankable annualized revenue. Projects without reliable revenue are excluded from this multiple.

Confidence Levels

Verified
Public dashboard, protocol-fee page, on-chain source, or official disclosure.
Estimated
Reasonable calculation from public inputs, but not directly reported as a final metric.
Unverified
Narrative, private proxy, incomplete source, or missing public evidence.

Update Cadence

Token market data
Every 15 minutes.
Revenue data
Daily, weekly, or manual review depending on source quality.
Treasury and on-chain signals
Hourly to daily as integrations mature.
Project descriptions and links
Manual editorial review for accuracy.

What We Exclude

01
Community, event-issued, spoofed, or unaffiliated tokens are excluded from valuation rankings.
02
Private revenue claims without public evidence are not used for P/S rankings.
03
Projects with no reliable revenue source can still be tracked, but their P/S remains unavailable.
Market data, revenue signals, and valuation multiples are volatile and may be incomplete. ZHCs.AI is for research only, not financial advice.
