How Homestead works

Clear guidance for browsing, posting, safety, contact access, SoulMatch, events and support. Admin can edit FAQ and content later.

1. Browse first

Visitors can explore approved public records: land, work, jobs, trade, events, seed records, communities, stories and SoulMatch summaries.

2. Login/register before action

Submitting records, saving searches, messaging, requesting details and creating a SoulMatch profile require login through the shared Ayuma Tools identity flow.

3. Contact stays controlled

Phone, email, documents and exact details are masked until the correct workflow is completed. SoulMatch uses paid intro, private chat and mutual contact sharing.

4. Everything is moderated

Submissions go through anti-spam, rate limits and moderation. Admin can approve, reject, pause modules, enable demo data and manage safety records.

5. Events are record-keeping tools

Hosts can post events, receive registration instructions and keep booking records. Promotion, reminders and featured placement can be monetized later.

6. Seed bank community

Seed and local breed records focus on origin, conservation, swaps, training and verified guardians. Avoid false claims and keep medical/agricultural disclaimers clear.

Common questions

FAQ

Do I need an account?

You can browse public records, but login/register is required before submitting, saving searches, contacting people or using controlled access.

Are contact details public?

No. Contact details are masked and controlled through access, chat, moderation and mutual sharing depending on the section.

Do I need another account?

No. The main website uses your Ayuma Tools account through signed SSO. Your Tools password is never sent to the main website.

Why are phone numbers and emails hidden?

Private contact is masked to reduce spam, scams and pressure. Some records allow contact only after login, mutual interest, owner approval or a Tools-managed payment.

Does Homestead verify ownership?

The platform can collect declarations and private documents for moderation, but every buyer must still conduct an independent official search and legal due diligence.

Are profile photos used in matching?

No. Compatibility scoring deliberately excludes photos and prioritises values, intention, lifestyle, communication and practical location or relocation fit.

Where are payments managed?

Enabled payment channels, prices and payment records are controlled through Ayuma Tools. The main site sends a signed request and returns you to the exact record.
