The community,
drawn by trust.
HPDRE is an invite-only directory of HPDE people who vouch for each other — and show up when it matters. See who's near you, who they're connected to, and who'll lend a trailer, a tool, or a couch in a pinch.
The Vortex
Find anyone. See who they’re connected to.
Search a name, then watch the web light up — who vouched them in, who they vouch for, and where they are in the country. Toggle to the map to read trust geographically.
The Vortex
Trust that spreads by hand.
Eric tags people he'd vouch for as good humans. Each of them names a few they trust — with a private note on why. Those people do the same. No algorithm, no strangers. Click any node to read its dossier, or search for someone.
Read the country
Switch to Map to see the same trust web laid over the country — who's near you, and who they're connected to.
How it grows
No algorithm. Just people who’d vouch for you.
Eric tags good humans
It starts with people Eric Kaul will personally vouch for — the ones who show up, share, and keep the community honest.
Each names 3–5 they trust
Every member quietly vouches for a handful of people they’d trust with their car and their weekend — with a private note on why.
The web grows itself
Those people do the same. Trust spreads by hand, never by stranger — a vortex that pulls the right people in.
Time of need
The whole point, in one screen.
Broken down between tracks? Need a trailer, a part, a bed? Ask the people who already trust you.

A true story, lightly fictionalized
“Car died eleven hours into the trip. One call, and a guy I'd helped years ago drove out with a trailer. We thrashed on it in his shop till 8pm and I made it home. Your money's no good here, he said.”
— Tommy I., Maryland
