Skill Tree Progression

Coming Soon!

The Skill Tree is the core progression framework of EgoPlay - a system that transforms consistent contribution into measurable mastery. It allows users to specialize in different domains, gain Skill XP, increase their Level, and compete globally through category-based leaderboards.

Every activity recorded on EgoPlay contributes to a user’s advancement across Skill Trees, each representing a distinct real-world domain - such as Kitchen, Sports, Cleaning, and Outdoors. These categories allow users to focus on what they naturally do best, transforming daily actions into a structured path of growth and recognition.

Specialization & Category Structure

EgoPlay’s Skill Tree system is built for specialization by choice. Each user progresses through multiple independent Skill Trees, each tied to a specific activity type:

  • Completing a cooking task builds XP in the Kitchen Tree.

  • Recording a basketball throw increases XP in the Sports Tree.

  • Performing home cleaning or organizing tasks adds XP to the Cleaning Tree.

  • Submitting outdoor recordings like gardening or fixing tools grows XP in the Outdoors Tree.

Each domain evolves independently, with its own XP, Skill Score, Level, and leaderboards, enabling users to either become specialists in one domain or generalists across many.

Skill XP, Skill Score & Level

Skill XP is the core measure of progress within a category. It is determined by both proficiency and participation, calculated as a function of the user’s average Skill Score and the number of completed tasks in that category.

Skill XP = Average Skill Score × Number of Completed Tasks in that Category

  • Skill Score reflects proficiency - the average quality of a user’s approved tasks within a category, as evaluated by Orn.

  • Task Count reflects consistency and effort - how frequently a user contributes data in that category.

  • Skill XP combines both, rewarding not just skill, but sustained, high-quality participation.

As Skill XP accumulates, users level up, just like in mobile or RPG-style games. Level progression unlocks access to new task tiers and higher visibility within the leaderboards.

Leaderboards & Competition

Each Skill Tree features its own weekly and monthly leaderboards, ranked by Skill XP, not raw scores. This ensures that the most consistent and active users rise to the top, even as proficiency remains a key driver of progress.

  • Weekly Leaderboards reward short-term effort and frequent participation.

  • Monthly Leaderboards highlight long-term excellence and sustained contribution quality.

Top performers on both leaderboards receive bonus Vader Points (VP) as additional rewards for their effort and consistency. This ensures that high-performing contributors not only progress faster through Skill Trees but also gain tangible, recurring in-game benefits.

Why Skill Trees Matter

The Skill Tree system ensures that EgoPlay progression is merit-driven, scalable, and rewarding:

  • Merit-Driven: Advancement is based on both how well and how often a user performs.

  • Balanced: Users with high precision and those with high consistency can both succeed.

  • Scalable: Each category evolves independently, maintaining diversity in both user activity and data quality.

By tying progression to Skill XP, the product of performance and participation, EgoPlay creates a balanced ecosystem where effort and expertise both matter. Skill Trees thus transform robotics data collection into a journey of skill development, consistency, and mastery, enabling users to build a verifiable track record of real-world ability that directly fuels the future of embodied AI.
