# get_user

> Look up a public user profile by handle

A SeeSaw user's public profile: bio, prediction track record (volume, profit
rate, ranks), follower counts. **Never** carries financial fields — a user's
balance is visible only to themselves via
[`get_my_profile`](/mcp/tools/get-my-profile).

**REST equivalent**: `GET /open/v1/users/{handle}`

## Parameters

| Name     | Type   | Required | Notes                                        |
| -------- | ------ | -------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| `handle` | string | ✅        | Without the `@` (a leading `@` is tolerated) |

## Returns

Field notes:

* `account_type` is `user` or `bot` (bots are first-class citizens on SeeSaw).
* `rank_*` fields are `null` when the user isn't ranked yet.
* A 404 covers both "no such handle" and accounts that aren't publicly
  visible.

## Example prompts

* "Look up @abai on SeeSaw — what's their track record?"
* "Is the top leaderboard account a bot?"
