What Does a Messari Profile Give a Project?
A Messari profile helps present the project in the context of a research and analytics platform. Our task is to organize project information, maintain its accuracy, and monitor how its presence is reflected in relevant sections.
This service suits teams that need a consistent project description and a clear process for updating data. It is especially useful if information is scattered across different sources, the name or positioning has changed, or you need regular checks that the profile matches the project's current state.
At the start, we determine:
- which public information the team considers key;
- which links and descriptions should be used as source materials;
- who from the project will approve wording and changes;
- which coverage sections need to be tracked within the task.
If you need not only work with research platforms but also an overall presence plan in directories, check the listings and verification section. For projects that need additional presence in other trackers, you can separately discuss profiles on other aggregators. Here, Messari is considered as a standalone channel: the scope of work and reporting are defined separately, and information is aligned to a single source of truth.
What Information Should You Prepare for a Messari Profile?
To work on a Messari profile, prepare a unified set of verifiable project information and assign a person who can confirm disputed or changed data. The fewer contradictions between descriptions and links, the easier it is to prepare a consistent submission and keep the profile up to date.
Typically, for the initial review, you provide:
- the official project name and a current short description;
- links to the website and public project channels;
- information about the product, its purpose, and current status;
- current materials the team uses to explain the project;
- a list of changes that may affect the existing description;
- contact for the person responsible for approvals and updates.
This does not mean every material will necessarily be required by the platform: first, we compare what you provide with the task and clarify what should be included in the work package. If data conflicts, we do not mask the discrepancy—we note where verification from the team is needed.
Such reconciliation is also useful for other project pages. For example, token supply data requires separate verification; for that, you can consider circulating supply verification. If you need a CryptoRank profile, that is a separate work stream described on the CryptoRank listing page.
How Work with Coverage and Updates Is Organized
Maintenance consists of an initial review, preparation and upkeep of information, and monitoring coverage. The specific set of tasks is agreed after getting to know the project, so we do not include unnecessary materials in the scope.
First, we study the source information and note what needs clarification. Then we align the description, prepare submission materials, and handle communication on agreed actions. After that, we track profile changes and coverage in the sections defined at the start.
| Stage | What the team receives |
|---|---|
| Initial review | List of source data and questions for clarification |
| Preparation | Agreed information and materials for profile work |
| Maintenance | Information updates and coverage monitoring |
| Reporting | Summary of activity and profile status |
The report format is chosen so the team can see what was checked, what information changed, and what questions still need resolution. For each submission, we keep confirmations of completed work and the current version of the materials used. This helps the team continue updates without re-collecting context and provides a practical basis for internal approvals.
How to Know Messari Maintenance Is Done Well
Quality of maintenance is visible in the accuracy of source data, transparency of statuses, and regularity of reporting, not just in the fact that materials were submitted. Before starting, it is worth agreeing on which information the team approves, where changes are recorded, and what the coverage report will look like.
In our work, MediaHype verifies project information before preparing a submission: the team receives a list of materials, notes on discrepancies, and a list of questions to resolve. After approval, we keep a change log and provide regular summaries of activity and profile status. This way, the project owner does not have to reconstruct history from messages and old file versions.
When reading the report, pay attention to specific signs:
- it indicates which information was checked and updated;
- completed actions are separated from those awaiting response;
- changes are described with reference to project materials;
- the next step is clear and has an owner;
- coverage status is comparable to the previous reporting period.
If the team is simultaneously developing presence in directories, define a common source of official descriptions in advance, but do not mix statuses of different platforms. You can compare related tasks via the listings section; updates to other aggregators' pages are considered separately from Messari work.
What Is Outside the Team's Control When Working with Messari?
The team can control the accuracy of submitted information, quality of materials, timeliness of approvals, and documentation of completed work. These factors allow for consistent profile management and quick resolution of status changes.
Decisions by Messari regarding profile approval, editorial inclusion, and display of the project on the platform are made by the platform itself; the agency does not control its internal criteria and does not promise permanent visibility in search or AI answers. Therefore, we confirm the agreed scope of work and show it in reporting, but we do not substitute this for the platform's decision.
Before starting, ask to define the service boundaries: what information the team provides, who approves wording, what exactly counts as a completed action, and how often you receive status updates. Also clarify whether subsequent project changes are included in the scope or require a new task. If the name, description, or public links change after launch, inform the responsible person as early as possible: this makes it easier to assess the impact of the update on the materials used and avoid maintaining an outdated version.
How to Start Messari Profile Maintenance
Start with a short project description, links to official sources, and a list of questions that prevent you from aligning public information. After that, we will review the source materials and propose a scope of work for the Messari profile.
Before sending, it is useful to gather:
- a current description of the project and its product;
- links the team considers official;
- the current version of the profile or information about previous submissions, if any;
- a list of upcoming changes and the contact of the approving person.
You do not need to prepare a complex package in advance or try to guess the platform's requirements. During the initial review, we will separate the information essential for your task from materials that do not affect the agreed scope. Then we will define the process for preparation, updates, and reporting, so the team knows who makes decisions at each stage.
Send these materials to MediaHype, and we will start by checking the completeness and consistency of the information. In response, you will receive a specific list of clarifications and a proposal for the maintenance scope, including the cost starting from $400 per project.

- Material ApprovalWe prepare a consistent project description and agree with you on the information to be used for profile work.
- Submission and MaintenanceWe carry out agreed actions on the profile and keep information up to date based on confirmed updates.
- Coverage MonitoringWe track profile status and activity in agreed sections, recording changes and questions for the next step.
- Regular ReportWe provide a summary of completed work and current status, so the team sees updates and understands what requires their input.
Frequently asked questions
What exactly do you do for a project's Messari profile?
We verify source information, help prepare and approve materials, manage profile work, and track coverage in relevant sections. The team receives regular reports on status and activity, as well as a list of questions that require their confirmation.
What materials are needed to start working with Messari?
Send a current project description, official links, available product materials, and the contact of the person who approves information. If the profile already exists or the team has previously submitted to the platform, add the current status and known changes. During the initial review, we will clarify what is missing.
Can you guarantee Messari profile approval?
No. The decision to approve a profile and editorial inclusion is made by Messari; visibility in search and AI answers is also not under the agency's control. We are responsible for agreed actions, quality of prepared information, maintenance, and reporting on work status.
How much does Messari profile maintenance cost?
Cost starts from $400 per project. The final scope depends on whether you need only profile preparation or also updates and regular coverage monitoring. After reviewing source materials, we will agree on which actions are included and what reporting format your team needs.
How often does the team receive reports on Messari?
Reports are provided regularly; the frequency is agreed when defining the maintenance scope. The summary reflects profile activity and status, information changes, and questions awaiting decisions from the project.
Can we manage Messari and other directories simultaneously?
Yes, related tasks can be planned in parallel, but each platform needs a separate status and a clear source of verified information. If the project needs other directories, we will discuss them separately and agree on a common update process to keep descriptions consistent.
