"Turning the ancient term 'Broadcast' on its head."
Broadcast People is a next-generation professional network for the creative industries. We are moving away from the static "Directory" model (a museum of past work) to build a Creator Signal Tower (a network of active intent).
This repository contains the full source code for the platform. For a deep dive into the project's philosophy, architecture, and data models, please see PROJECT_OVERVIEW.md.
The traditional industry connects people based on who they worked for. We connect people based on what they use (their "Stack") and what they are building now (their "Intent").
- Intent Over History: We connect collaborators based on what they want to build tomorrow, not just what they did yesterday.
- The "Stack" as Identity: Your tools define you. A "Prompt Engineer using Midjourney" is distinct from a "VFX Artist using Nuke." We treat tools as primary search terms.
- Legacy Recovery ("The Time Machine"): We acknowledge that creators lose their digital history. Our AI agent uses the Internet Archive to restore past credits and skills from defunct portfolio sites.
- 🕰️ The Time Machine: An AI-powered recovery engine that scrapes archived versions of dead websites to automatically reconstruct a creator's profile.
- 📡 Project Beacons: A live feed where creators broadcast temporary signals for collaboration (e.g., "Need Sound Designer for Cyberpunk Short"), ensuring urgency and relevance.
- 🛠️ The Stack Search: A structured search engine allowing producers to find talent by the exact hardware, software, and AI models required for a project.
