Feature · Private impressions
A rating that stays a conversation, not a label.
Velivow's impressions are not a public popularity contest. They are private signals — shared only when both people opt into a connection, when a dimension unlocks through conversation, or when someone explicitly approves a request.
Private by default
The person you rate never sees your name, your score, your tags or your note. They receive a neutral notification that an impression exists.
Small-sample protection
An average appears only after 3 different raters. Distribution and trend charts require at least 10. The server never sends below-threshold values.
Earned, not bought
Membership does not open private scores. Chat unlocks and explicit requests are the only paths, and both people remain in control.
The profile headline is the Overall Impression average — never a second average of all seven dimensions.
If fewer than three people have rated a dimension, the public page shows no score for it. A profile can feel incomplete; that is preferable to implying precision that does not exist.
