Intro: The future isn’t just one that’s more social. It’s also one that is more personalized, with proactive, helpful AI assistants in all aspects of your life: ordering your groceries, generating you music, and buying your clothes.

Our platform creates a network with the richest context layer to have ever existed, creating not only a new social fabric, but also the fundamental infrastructure to power the next decade of personal AI agents.
