# How It Works

> From market creation to results — the Maybee flow in four steps

<Steps>
  <Step title="Creator launches a market">
    A creator picks a topic — "Will Team X win the final?", "Bitcoin above \$100k by Friday?", anything with a clear outcome. They set the question, possible outcomes, and a deadline. The market goes live to their audience.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Audience joins and predicts">
    Followers see the market in the creator's feed or on the Maybee platform. They pick an outcome and put stakes behind their prediction. The creator can also take a public position — putting their reputation on the line alongside their community.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Competition plays out">
    While the market is open, participants see live rankings and odds. Battles — structured 1v1 or group competitions — add an extra layer: creator vs audience, user vs user, with results visible to everyone.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Resolution and reputation">
    When the event happens, the market resolves automatically. Winners collect payouts. Everyone's accuracy updates: leaderboards shift, reputation grows or shrinks. The track record is permanent and public.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Market resolution uses verifiable data sources. Disputed outcomes are handled through a transparent resolution process.
