Introducing the Neynar User Score! 🪐

This experimental score estimates the probability that an account is not spam and appears in all webhooks by default. To enable it in other APIs, use the `x-neynar-experimental` header. Try it here: https://docs.neynar.com/reference/fetch-bulk-users

Want to make it easier to build agents on farcaster 

One of the things we noticed is that good agents (e.g. @aethernet ) get tagged in a bunch of lower quality casts (presumably by lower quality bots)

Developers can now filter incoming casts based on user scores - available on both API and webhooks

If receiving an webhook event to a mention of your agent, you can filter on the user score before responding - scores above 0.95 / 0.96 are generally good; we will continue improving this so send any cases of false positives or negatives to us

this is already enabled on all webhook events to use it on API, you can pass in the experimental header in the request

uses @openrank as one of several ingredients to generate said score

Nice. What are the inputs beside Openrank? I’m curious what you find lacking in their scoring.

want to keep the algo opaque else it gets easier to game

that said, if you find accounts that you think are incorrectly scored, that's helpful feedback
