Ourcompany GENESIS: MODULE STANDARD PLATE From the beginning... Riding bikes through Venice Beach, Sean Conrad & Jesse Berns dreamt about how an engineer and an epidemiologist/data-scientist might use software, magic, and our smartphones to make people feel better. Like, actually better. Social Media spent the last decade isolating us from our friends and communities—and that loneliness has really started to degrade our “norms”, social structures and ability to self-govern. So Sean and Jesse started with the simple premise that our real-world connections matter, that people matter—and ended up with a very different kind of social app. NON GENESIS: MODULE MISSION OurMission Use technology to bring people together in real-life and empower them to make each others’ lives better. genesis startline GENESIS: Reusing Template Part Values Operating Principles GENESIS: VALUES OurValues Once you put people first, you can have different corporate goals. Success only matters if we get there without compromising our principles, users, communities, or the planet. Anything less than that standard is a failure in our eyes. Achieving these are going to take work and time. That’s fine, they’re why we’re doing all of this. Stewardship Social networks are reshaping the world and have a duty to make it a little bit better. Protecting people, their data, their privacy, and when necessary—taking steps to prevent harm. It means limiting or offsetting our harmful impact on the planet. Happiness Our goal is to eliminate and even reverse the FOMO, doubt, isolation, and filter bubbles technology caused. People should feel empowered to explore their world, create new connections, find fulfillment, and rediscover their own self-worth. Humanity Our company will reflect the diversity of the cities we operate in—as a start. From there, improve on it and our communities to find harmony: gender, agency, privacy, representation, opportunity, and parity. Community We are uniquely positioned to act as a catalyst to improve real world communities—especially the minority voices and the disadvantaged. That means creating a safe digital space that amplifies authenticity, respect, and cultural vibrancy. Transparency Skepticism is good. We’ll keep you updated to verify your trust and keep us honest. Our users will be able to understand how we make money—and how we don’t. As our feature set grows or revenue opportunities arise, we’ll keep you updated. As we make m GENESIS: Reusing Template Part Globe Highlight OurTeam Work smarter. Better. Together. Wherever. Here’s the secret: Fixing social technology is an anthropic issue as much as it is a cultural and technological one. So we’ve built a team of people with a diverse background of skillsets to get it done—machine learning, data science, advertising, product design, operations, and epidemiology. As part of that process, we’ve built an international team focused on that mission. Meet the Team *No Antarctica?! We’ll add it when we hire someone.
