What it does
Rated provides staking-network explorers and APIs for validator performance, rewards and operator metadata. Its public explorer helps compare a pool with its operators, while API subscriptions support reports and monitoring for a chosen validator fleet.
Rated separates reward data from performance and operator metadata. Earned rewards explain accounting activity, while historical performance helps compare a validator fleet over time. Keep the network, validator set and period with a comparison rather than treating one headline rating as the complete operating record.
In the Ethereum explorer, search by entity, address, validator index or public key. Choose a one-day, seven-day, thirty-day or all-time window, then compare measures such as participation and correctness. Aggregate shows the pool together; Operator breaks it into members when the relevant registry information is available. An aggregate result can hide differences among those members.
The explorer is public and does not require registration. API access uses an account and a bearer key. Its plans distinguish a finite introduction from recurring allowances.
| API tier | Base allowance | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Free | 100,000 lifetime compute units and 10,000 lifetime requests | Free |
| Starter | 100,000 compute units per month | Quote |
| Build | One million monthly compute units and four private sets | Quote |
| Growth | Four million monthly compute units and twenty private sets | Quote |
| Enterprise | Custom allowance, including metadata access | Quote |
The free quota does not refill and has a two-request-per-second limit. For fleet reporting with a private set, create the set, associate validator public keys with its ID, then request performance or rewards for the required dates. Removing a validator later does not erase its historical contribution. That matters if fleet membership changes halfway through a reporting period.
Strengths
- Public pool views can show individual operators when registry data is available
- Private API sets retain historical contributions when fleet membership changes
Watch out for
- The free API request and compute allowances are lifetime limits
- Metadata endpoints require an Enterprise API package
Best for
- Comparing a staking pool with its underlying operators
- Building performance and reward reports for a defined validator fleet
