Frequently asked questions
What is INTAYO?
INTAYO turns a disagreement into a challenge: you make a claim, the other side counters it, and evidence decides. Whoever turns out to be right earns the right to say I TOLD YOU.
Which game modes are there?
Three. Challenge puts claim against counter-claim. Tally counts an event over a set period. Thesis is a claim about the future that turns out true or false on its own.
How does the Challenge mode work?
You write your claim, invite the other side by link or email and set the stake. Both sides submit their evidence, the challenge is resolved — and the loser carries an honor debt.
How does the Tally mode work?
You set what gets counted, how often and until when — at least, at most, exactly or fewer than. Every occurrence is reported and then confirmed or rejected by the other side. Once the outcome is mathematically settled the challenge ends right away, even before the deadline.
How does the Thesis mode work?
You put up a claim about the future and set a deadline. Until then each side can gather evidence; in the end what actually happened decides. Public theses can be followed by the community in the Arena.
Who decides who was right?
First the two of you: if both confirm the same winner, it is settled — that is the normal path and it is free. If you disagree, an AI reviews the claims and the submitted evidence and shows its reasoning; at most twice per challenge. After that a human can decide, which incurs the fee shown in the app.
What is an honor debt?
The stake the loser owes — a drink, a meal, a donation or simply the admission. The app keeps the debt visibly open until the loser marks it as settled.
Is money involved in INTAYO?
Not for the stakes. INTAYO holds no stake, pays out no winnings and sets no odds — the stake is only recorded and settled between you. Money only comes in if you book a paid plan or request a human decision.
What happens if a challenge is never resolved?
If the deadline passes without a winner, both sides lose points — more than a defeat would cost. Big talk is supposed to come with proof.
What are the points for?
Every account carries an R-Score. Wins add points, defeats cost them, and letting a challenge expire unresolved costs the most. Your score determines your league and shows in your profile.
What does INTAYO cost?
Playing challenges is free. Paid plans with extra features exist for groups and companies — if you just play along, you pay nothing.
Do I need an app?
No. INTAYO runs in the browser and can be installed on your phone like an app. You can even accept an invitation as a guest without creating an account first.
