About Morty Awards

The Morty Awards celebrate the Makeys — people who build, create, innovate, and contribute positively to their fields — and shine a light on the Takeys — people who exploit, extract, deceive, or harm the communities they operate in.

How It Works

Every profile on this site is narrative-first. We tell stories backed by sources. Each person gets a detailed writeup explaining who they are, what they have done, and why they matter — for better or worse.

Methodology

• Makey profiles document projects, contributions, and measurable impact across reach, innovation, community, and consistency.
• Takey profiles document specific incidents (confirmed, alleged, or disputed), behavioral patterns, and damage across financial, reputational, community, and deception metrics.

The Awards

Annual awards are determined by community voting. Browse profiles, cast your votes, and help decide who earns the top Makey and Takey awards each year.
